Detailed Description

MemoryBuffer - This interface provides simple read-only access to a block of memory, and provides simple methods for reading files and standard input into a memory buffer. In addition to basic access to the characters in the file, this interface guarantees you can read one character past the end of the file, and that this character will read as '\0'.

The '\0' guarantee is needed to support an optimization -- it's intended to be more efficient for clients which are reading all the data to stop reading when they encounter a '\0' than to continually check the file position to see if it has reached the end of the file.

StringRef llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBuffer ( ) const [inline]
const char* llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBufferEnd ( ) const [inline]
virtual const char* llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBufferIdentifier ( ) const [inline, virtual]

getBufferIdentifier - Return an identifier for this buffer, typically the filename it was read from.

virtual BufferKind llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBufferKind ( ) const [pure virtual]

Return information on the memory mechanism used to support the MemoryBuffer.

size_t llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBufferSize ( ) const [inline]
const char* llvm::MemoryBuffer::getBufferStart ( ) const [inline]
error_code MemoryBuffer::getFile ( StringRef  Filename,
OwningPtr< MemoryBuffer > &  result,
int64_t  FileSize = -1,
bool  RequiresNullTerminator = true 
) [static]

getFile - Open the specified file as a MemoryBuffer, returning a new MemoryBuffer if successful, otherwise returning null. If FileSize is specified, this means that the client knows that the file exists and that it has the specified size.

getFileOrSTDIN - Open the specified file as a MemoryBuffer, or open stdin if the Filename is "-". If an error occurs, this returns null and sets ec.

getFileOrSTDIN - Open the specified file as a MemoryBuffer, or open stdin if the Filename is "-". If an error occurs, this returns null and fills in *ErrStr with a reason. If stdin is empty, this API (unlike getSTDIN) returns an empty buffer.
