MappedFile

The #GMappedFile represents a file mapping created with glib.mapped_file.MappedFile.new_. It has only private members and should not be accessed directly.

class MappedFile : Boxed {

this(string filename, bool writable);

static glib.mapped_file.MappedFile newFromFd(int fd, bool writable);

glib.bytes.Bytes getBytes();

string getContents();

size_t getLength();

}

Constructors

this this(string filename, bool writable): Maps a file into memory. On UNIX, this is using the mmap() function.

Members

Functions

getBytes glib.bytes.Bytes getBytes(): Creates a new #GBytes which references the data mapped from file. The mapped contents of the file must not be modified after creating this bytes object, because a #GBytes should be immutable.
getContents string getContents(): Returns the contents of a #GMappedFile.
getLength size_t getLength(): Returns the length of the contents of a #GMappedFile.

Static functions

newFromFd glib.mapped_file.MappedFile newFromFd(int fd, bool writable): Maps a file into memory. On UNIX, this is using the mmap() function.

Inherited Members

From Boxed

cInstancePtr void* cInstancePtr;: Pointer to the C boxed value
getType GType getType(): Get the GType of this boxed type.
gType GType gType [@property getter]: Boxed GType property.
self Boxed self(): Convenience method to return this cast to a type. For use in D with statements.
copy_ void* copy_(): Make a copy of the wrapped C boxed data.
boxedCopy void* boxedCopy(void* cBoxed): Copy a C boxed value using g_boxed_copy.
boxedFree void boxedFree(void* cBoxed): Free a C boxed value using g_boxed_free.
