StreamPeerBuffer
Inherits StreamPeer
A stream peer used to handle binary data streams.
Description
A data buffer stream peer that uses a byte array as the stream. This object can be used to handle binary data from network sessions. To handle binary data stored in files, FileAccess can be used directly. A StreamPeerBuffer object keeps an internal cursor which is the offset in bytes to the start of the buffer. Get and put operations are performed at the cursor position and will move the cursor accordingly.
Properties
PackedByteArray data_array = PackedByteArray()
PackedByteArray data_array = PackedByteArray()The underlying data buffer. Setting this value resets the cursor.
Methods
void clear()
Clears the data_array and resets the cursor.
StreamPeerBuffer duplicate() const
StreamPeerBuffer duplicate() constReturns a new StreamPeerBuffer with the same data_array content.
int get_position() const
int get_position() constReturns the current cursor position.
int get_size() const
int get_size() constReturns the size of data_array.
void resize(int size)
int size)Resizes the data_array. This doesn't update the cursor.
void seek(int position)
int position)Moves the cursor to the specified position. position must be a valid index of data_array.
