Detailed Description

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.

ErrorOr< std::unique_ptr< MemoryBuffer > > MemoryBuffer::getFile ( const Twine Filename,

static

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.

Parameters
IsVolatileSizeSet to true to indicate that the file size may be changing, e.g. when libclang tries to parse while the user is editing/updating the file.

Open the specified memory range as a MemoryBuffer, copying the contents and taking ownership of it.

InputData does not have to be null terminated.

Allocate a new zero-initialized MemoryBuffer of the specified size.

Note that the caller need not initialize the memory allocated by this method. The memory is owned by the MemoryBuffer object.

Given an already-open file descriptor, read the file and return a MemoryBuffer.

Parameters
IsVolatileSizeSet to true to indicate that the file size may be changing, e.g. when libclang tries to parse while the user is editing/updating the file.

Given an already-open file descriptor, map some slice of it into a MemoryBuffer.

The slice is specified by an Offset and MapSize. Since this is in the middle of a file, the buffer is not null terminated.
