Buffer

Supported platforms:
Available since: Gideros 2020.2
Inherits from: Object

Description

The Buffer class acts as FIFO buffer with Gideros internal file system integration.

At Lua side, Buffers are created with a name, and data can be added or taken from them.

Once created, buffer data can also be accessed by internal gideros functions that normally use files, such as textures or sounds. To do that pass |B|buffer.ext as the file name, where buffer.ext is the name of the buffer.

Methods Buffer.new creates a new Buffer object Buffer:append adds data at the end of the buffer Buffer:get gets data from the buffer Buffer:prepend adds data at the beginning of the buffer Buffer:seek sets the position of the next file access Buffer:set sets data in the buffer Buffer:size gets the buffer size Buffer:tell gets the position of the next file access Buffer:trim removes data from the start or the end of the buffer
