Function

GLibPtrArrayremove_index_fast

Declaration

gpointer
g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast (
  GPtrArray* array,
  guint index_
)

Description

Removes the pointer at the given index from the pointer array. The last element in the array is used to fill in the space, so this function does not preserve the order of the array. But it is faster than g_ptr_array_remove_index(). If array has a non-NULL GDestroyNotify function it is called for the removed element. If so, the return value from this function will potentially point to freed memory (depending on the GDestroyNotify implementation).

This function is not directly available to language bindings.

Parameters

A GPtrArray.

The data is owned by the caller of the function.
index_

Type: guint

The index of the pointer to remove.

Return value

Type: gpointer

The pointer which was removed.

The data is owned by the called function.
The return value can be NULL.
