NE_BUFFER_CLEAR(3) neon API reference NE_BUFFER_CLEAR(3)

NAME

ne_buffer_clear, ne_buffer_grow, ne_buffer_altered - clear, grow, or
mark as altered a string buffer

SYNOPSIS

#include <ne_string.h>

void ne_buffer_clear(ne_buffer *buf);

void ne_buffer_altered(ne_buffer *buf);

void ne_buffer_grow(ne_buffer *buf, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION

The ne_buffer_clear function sets the string stored in buf to be the
empty string ("").

The ne_buffer_altered function must be used after the string stored
in the buffer buf is modified by directly rather than using
ne_buffer_append, ne_buffer_zappend or ne_buffer_concat.

The ne_buffer_grow function ensures that at least size bytes are
allocated for the string; this can be used if a large amount of data
is going to be appended to the buffer and may result in more
efficient memory allocation.
