=head1 DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
BIO_s_mem() returns the memory BIO method function.
|
|
|
|
A memory BIO is a source/sink BIO which uses memory for its I/O. Data
|
|
written to a memory BIO is stored in a BUF_MEM structure which is extended
|
|
as appropriate to accommodate the stored data.
|
|
|
|
BIO_s_secmem() is like BIO_s_mem() except that the secure heap is used
|
|
for buffer storage.
|
|
|
|
Any data written to a memory BIO can be recalled by reading from it.
|
|
Unless the memory BIO is read only any data read from it is deleted from
|
|
the BIO.
|
|
|
|
Memory BIOs support BIO_gets() and BIO_puts().
|
|
|
|
If the BIO_CLOSE flag is set when a memory BIO is freed then the underlying
|
|
BUF_MEM structure is also freed.
|
|
|
|
Calling BIO_reset() on a read write memory BIO clears any data in it if the
|
|
flag BIO_FLAGS_NONCLEAR_RST is not set. On a read only BIO or if the flag
|
|
BIO_FLAGS_NONCLEAR_RST is set it restores the BIO to its original state and
|
|
the data can be read again.
|
|
|
|
BIO_eof() is true if no data is in the BIO.
|
|
|
|
BIO_ctrl_pending() returns the number of bytes currently stored.
|
|
|
|
BIO_set_mem_eof_return() sets the behaviour of memory BIO B<b> when it is
|
|
empty. If the B<v> is zero then an empty memory BIO will return EOF (that is
|
|
it will return zero and BIO_should_retry(b) will be false. If B<v> is non
|
|
zero then it will return B<v> when it is empty and it will set the read retry
|
|
flag (that is BIO_read_retry(b) is true). To avoid ambiguity with a normal
|
|
positive return value B<v> should be set to a negative value, typically -1.
|
|
|
|
BIO_get_mem_data() sets *B<pp> to a pointer to the start of the memory BIOs data
|
|
and returns the total amount of data available. It is implemented as a macro.
|
|
|
|
BIO_set_mem_buf() sets the internal BUF_MEM structure to B<bm> and sets the
|
|
close flag to B<c>, that is B<c> should be either BIO_CLOSE or BIO_NOCLOSE.
|
|
It is a macro.
|
|
|
|
BIO_get_mem_ptr() places the underlying BUF_MEM structure in *B<pp>. It is
|
|
a macro.
|
|
|
|
BIO_new_mem_buf() creates a memory BIO using B<len> bytes of data at B<buf>,
|
|
if B<len> is -1 then the B<buf> is assumed to be nul terminated and its
|
|
length is determined by B<strlen>. The BIO is set to a read only state and
|
|
as a result cannot be written to. This is useful when some data needs to be
|
|
made available from a static area of memory in the form of a BIO. The
|
|
supplied data is read directly from the supplied buffer: it is B<not> copied
|
|
first, so the supplied area of memory must be unchanged until the BIO is freed.
|
|
|
|
=head1 NOTES
|
|
|
|
Writes to memory BIOs will always succeed if memory is available: that is
|
|
their size can grow indefinitely.
|
|
|
|
Every read from a read write memory BIO will remove the data just read with
|
|
an internal copy operation, if a BIO contains a lot of data and it is
|
|
read in small chunks the operation can be very slow. The use of a read only
|
|
memory BIO avoids this problem. If the BIO must be read write then adding
|
|
a buffering BIO to the chain will speed up the process.
|
|
|
|
Calling BIO_set_mem_buf() on a BIO created with BIO_new_secmem() will
|
|
give undefined results, including perhaps a program crash.
|
|
|
|
=head1 BUGS
|
|
|
|
There should be an option to set the maximum size of a memory BIO.
|
|
|
|
=head1 EXAMPLE
|
|
|
|
Create a memory BIO and write some data to it:
|
|
|
|
BIO *mem = BIO_new(BIO_s_mem());
|
|
|
|
BIO_puts(mem, "Hello World\n");
|
|
|
|
Create a read only memory BIO:
|
|
|
|
char data[] = "Hello World";
|
|
BIO *mem = BIO_new_mem_buf(data, -1);
|
|
|
|
Extract the BUF_MEM structure from a memory BIO and then free up the BIO:
|
|
|
|
BUF_MEM *bptr;
|
|
|
|
BIO_get_mem_ptr(mem, &bptr);
|
|
BIO_set_close(mem, BIO_NOCLOSE); /* So BIO_free() leaves BUF_MEM alone */
|
|
BIO_free(mem);
|
|
|
|
=head1 RETURN VALUES
|
|
|
|
BIO_s_mem() and BIO_s_secmem() return a valid memory B<BIO_METHOD> structure.
|
|
|
|
BIO_set_mem_eof_return(), BIO_get_mem_data(), BIO_set_mem_buf() and BIO_get_mem_ptr()
|
|
return 1 on success or a value which is less than or equal to 0 if an error occurred.
|
|
|
|
BIO_new_mem_buf() returns a valid B<BIO> structure on success or NULL on error.
