ArrayBuffer

Class Napi::ArrayBuffer inherits from class Napi::Object.

The Napi::ArrayBuffer class corresponds to the
JavaScript ArrayBuffer
class.

Methods

New

Allocates a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance with a given length.

static Napi::ArrayBuffer Napi::ArrayBuffer::New(napi_env env, size_t byteLength);

• [in] env: The environment in which to create the Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.
• [in] byteLength: The length to be allocated, in bytes.

Returns a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

New

Wraps the provided external data into a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

The Napi::ArrayBuffer instance does not assume ownership for the data and
expects it to be valid for the lifetime of the instance. Since the
Napi::ArrayBuffer is subject to garbage collection this overload is only
suitable for data which is static and never needs to be freed.

static Napi::ArrayBuffer Napi::ArrayBuffer::New(napi_env env, void* externalData, size_t byteLength);

• [in] env: The environment in which to create the Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.
• [in] externalData: The pointer to the external data to wrap.
• [in] byteLength: The length of the externalData, in bytes.

Returns a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

New

Wraps the provided external data into a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

The Napi::ArrayBuffer instance does not assume ownership for the data and
expects it to be valid for the lifetime of the instance. The data can only be
freed once the finalizeCallback is invoked to indicate that the
Napi::ArrayBuffer has been released.

template <typename Finalizer>
static Napi::ArrayBuffer Napi::ArrayBuffer::New(napi_env env,
                       void* externalData,
                       size_t byteLength,
                       Finalizer finalizeCallback);

• [in] env: The environment in which to create the Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.
• [in] externalData: The pointer to the external data to wrap.
• [in] byteLength: The length of the externalData, in bytes.
• [in] finalizeCallback: A function to be called when the Napi::ArrayBuffer is
  destroyed. It must implement operator(), accept a void* (which is the
  externalData pointer), and return void.

Returns a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

                       size_t byteLength,
                       Finalizer finalizeCallback,
                       Hint* finalizeHint);

• [in] env: The environment in which to create the Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.
• [in] externalData: The pointer to the external data to wrap.
• [in] byteLength: The length of the externalData, in bytes.
• [in] finalizeCallback: The function to be called when the Napi::ArrayBuffer is
  destroyed. It must implement operator(), accept a void* (which is the
  externalData pointer) and Hint*, and return void.
• [in] finalizeHint: The hint to be passed as the second parameter of the
  finalize callback.

Returns a new Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.

Constructor

Initializes an empty instance of the Napi::ArrayBuffer class.

Napi::ArrayBuffer::ArrayBuffer();

Constructor

Initializes a wrapper instance of an existing Napi::ArrayBuffer object.

Napi::ArrayBuffer::ArrayBuffer(napi_env env, napi_value value);

• [in] env: The environment in which to create the Napi::ArrayBuffer instance.
• [in] value: The Napi::ArrayBuffer reference to wrap.

ByteLength

size_t Napi::ArrayBuffer::ByteLength() const;

Returns the length of the wrapped data, in bytes.

Data

void* Napi::ArrayBuffer::Data() const;

Returns a pointer the wrapped data.

Detach

void Napi::ArrayBuffer::Detach();

Invokes the ArrayBuffer detach operation on a detachable ArrayBuffer.

IsDetached

bool Napi::ArrayBuffer::IsDetached() const;

Returns true if this ArrayBuffer has been detached.
