#ifndef _SCRATCH_BUFFER_H
#define _SCRATCH_BUFFER_H
/* Scratch buffers with a default stack allocation and fallback to
heap allocation. It is expected that this function is used in this
way:
struct scratch_buffer tmpbuf;
scratch_buffer_init (&tmpbuf);
while (!function_that_uses_buffer (tmpbuf.data, tmpbuf.length))
if (!scratch_buffer_grow (&tmpbuf))
return -1;
scratch_buffer_free (&tmpbuf);
return 0;
The allocation functions (scratch_buffer_grow,
scratch_buffer_grow_preserve, scratch_buffer_set_array_size) make
sure that the heap allocation, if any, is freed, so that the code
above does not have a memory leak. The buffer still remains in a
state that can be deallocated using scratch_buffer_free, so a loop
like this is valid as well:
struct scratch_buffer tmpbuf;
scratch_buffer_init (&tmpbuf);
while (!function_that_uses_buffer (tmpbuf.data, tmpbuf.length))
if (!scratch_buffer_grow (&tmpbuf))
break;
scratch_buffer_free (&tmpbuf);
scratch_buffer_grow and scratch_buffer_grow_preserve are guaranteed
to grow the buffer by at least 512 bytes. This means that when
using the scratch buffer as a backing store for a non-character
array whose element size, in bytes, is 512 or smaller, the scratch
buffer only has to grow once to make room for at least one more
element.
