Method
GLibBytesunref_to_array
since: 2.32
Declaration [src]
GByteArray*
g_bytes_unref_to_array (
GBytes* bytes
)
Description [src]
Unreferences the bytes, and returns a new mutable GByteArray
containing the same byte data.
As an optimization, the byte data is transferred to the array without copying
if this was the last reference to bytes and bytes was created with
g_bytes_new(), g_bytes_new_take() or
g_byte_array_free_to_bytes() and the buffer was larger than the size
GBytes may internalize within its allocation. In all other cases
the data is copied.
Do not use it if bytes contains more than G_MAXUINT
bytes. GByteArray stores the length of its data in guint,
which may be shorter than gsize, that bytes is using.
Available since: 2.32
Return value
Type: An array of guint8
A new mutable GByteArray containing
the same byte data.
| The caller of the method takes ownership of the returned data, and is responsible for freeing it. |
