flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder Class Reference

Helper class to hold data needed in creation of a FlatBuffer. To serialize data, you typically call one of the Create*() functions in the generated code, which in turn call a sequence of StartTable/ PushElement/AddElement/EndTable, or the builtin CreateString/ CreateVector functions. Do this is depth-first order to build up a tree to the root. Finish() wraps up the buffer ready for transport. More...

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder::FlatBufferBuilder ( size_t  initial_size = 1024,
Allocator allocator = nullptr,
bool  own_allocator = false,
size_t  buffer_minalign = AlignOf<largest_scalar_t>() 
)
inlineexplicit

Default constructor for FlatBufferBuilder.

Parameters
[in]initial_sizeThe initial size of the buffer, in bytes. Defaults to 1024.
[in]allocatorAn Allocator to use. Defaults to a new instance of a DefaultAllocator.
[in]own_allocatorWhether the builder/vector should own the allocator. Defaults to / false.
[in]buffer_minalignForce the buffer to be aligned to the given minimum alignment upon reallocation. Only needed if you intend to store types with custom alignment AND you wish to read the buffer in-place directly after creation.

Returns an uint8_t pointer to the FlatBuffer data inside the buffer.

Definition at line 784 of file flatbuffers.h.

uint8_t* flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder::GetCurrentBufferPointer ( ) const
inline

Get a pointer to an unfinished buffer.

Returns
Returns a uint8_t pointer to the unfinished buffer.

Definition at line 791 of file flatbuffers.h.

uoffset_t flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder::GetSize ( ) const
inline

The current size of the serialized buffer, counting from the end.

Returns
Returns an uoffset_t with the current size of the buffer.

Definition at line 779 of file flatbuffers.h.

DetachedBuffer flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder::Release ( )
inline

Get the released DetachedBuffer.

Returns
A DetachedBuffer that owns the buffer and its allocator.

Definition at line 805 of file flatbuffers.h.

DetachedBuffer flatbuffers::FlatBufferBuilder::ReleaseBufferPointer ( )
inline

Get the released pointer to the serialized buffer.

Warning
Do NOT attempt to use this FlatBufferBuilder afterwards!
Returns
A FlatBuffer that owns the buffer and its allocator and behaves similar to a unique_ptr with a deleter. Deprecated: use Release() instead
