Syntax

class FCompositeBuffer

Remarks

FCompositeBuffer is a non-contiguous buffer composed of zero or more immutable shared buffers.

A composite buffer is most efficient when its segments are consumed as they are, but it can be flattened into a contiguous buffer when necessary, by calling ToShared(). Ownership of segment buffers is not changed on construction, but if ownership of segments is required then that can be guaranteed by calling MakeOwned().

Constructors

	Name	Description
	FCompositeBuffer ( BufferTypes&&... Buffers )	Construct a composite buffer by concatenating the buffers.

Functions

	Name	Description
void	CopyTo ( FMutableMemoryView Target, uint64 Offset )	Copies a range of the buffer to a contiguous region of memory.
TConstArrayV...	GetSegments()	Returns the segments that the buffer is composed from.
uint64	GetSize()	Returns the total size of the composite buffer in bytes.
bool	IsNull()	Returns true if the composite buffer is null.
bool	IsOwned()	Returns true if every segment in the composite buffer is owned.
void	IterateRange ( uint64 Offset, uint64 Size, TFunctionRef< void View... )	Invokes a visitor with a view of each segment that intersects with a range.
void	IterateRange ( uint64 Offset, uint64 Size, TFunctionRef< void View... )
FCompositeBu...	MakeOwned()	Returns a copy of the buffer where every segment is owned.
FCompositeBu...	MakeOwned()
FCompositeBu...	Mid ( uint64 Offset, uint64 Size )	Returns the middle part of the buffer by taking the size starting at the offset.
void	Reset()	Reset this to null.
FSharedBuffe...	ToShared()	Returns the concatenation of the segments into a contiguous buffer.
FSharedBuffe...	ToShared()
FMemoryView	ViewOrCopyRange ( uint64 Offset, uint64 Size, FUniqueBuffer& CopyBuffer, TFunctionRef< FUniqueBuffer S... )	Returns a view of the range if contained by one segment, otherwise a view of a copy of the range.

Operators

		Name	Description
		operator bool()	Returns true if the composite buffer is not null.
