FpiByteReaderFpiByteReader — Reads different integer, string and floating point types from a memory buffer |
FpiByteReader provides a byte reader that can read different integer and floating point types from a memory buffer. It provides functions for reading signed/unsigned, little/big endian integers of 8, 16, 24, 32 and 64 bits and functions for reading little/big endian floating points numbers of 32 and 64 bits. It also provides functions to read NUL-terminated strings in various character encodings.

gboolean fpi_byte_reader_peek_sub_reader (FpiByteReader *reader,FpiByteReader *sub_reader,guint size);
Initializes a FpiByteReader sub-reader instance to contain size
bytes of
data from the current position of reader
. This is useful to read chunked
formats and make sure that one doesn't read beyond the size of the sub-chunk.

current position of reader
.

Scan for pattern pattern
