Function

GLibByteArraynew_take

since: 2.32

Declaration

GByteArray*
g_byte_array_new_take (
  guint8* data,
  gsize len
)

Description

Creates a byte array containing the data. After this call, data belongs to the GByteArray and may no longer be modified by the caller. The memory of data has to be dynamically allocated and will eventually be freed with g_free().

Do not use it if len is greater than G_MAXUINT. GByteArray stores the length of its data in #guint, which may be shorter than

gsize.

Available since: 2.32

Parameters

data

Type: An array of guint8

Byte data for the array.

The length of the array is specified in the len argument.

The called function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.

len

Type: gsize

Length of data.

Return value

Type: An array of guint8

A new GByteArray.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
