#Fiddle::Pointer.new(address) ⇒ Object #new(address, size) ⇒ Object #new(address, size, freefunc) ⇒ Object

Create a new pointer to address with an optional size and freefunc.

freefunc will be called when the instance is garbage collected.

.Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, freefunc = nil) ⇒ Object .Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, freefunc) {|pointer| ... } ⇒ Object

Examples

# Automatically freeing the pointer when the block is exited - recommended
Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, Fiddle::RUBY_FREE) do |pointer|
  ...
end

# Manually freeing but relying on the garbage collector otherwise
pointer = Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, Fiddle::RUBY_FREE)
...
pointer.call_free

# Relying on the garbage collector - may lead to unlimited memory allocated before freeing any, but safe
pointer = Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, Fiddle::RUBY_FREE)
...

# Only manually freeing
pointer = Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size)
begin
  ...
ensure
  Fiddle.free pointer
end

# No free function and no call to free - the native memory will leak if the pointer is garbage collected
pointer = Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size)
...

Allocate size bytes of memory and associate it with an optional freefunc.

If a block is supplied, the pointer will be yielded to the block instead of being returned, and the return value of the block will be returned. A freefunc must be supplied if a block is.

If a freefunc is supplied it will be called once, when the pointer is garbage collected or when the block is left if a block is supplied or when the user calls call_free, whichever happens first. freefunc must be an address pointing to a function or an instance of Fiddle::Function.

Overloads:

  • .Fiddle::Pointer.malloc(size, freefunc) {|pointer| ... } ⇒ Object

    Yields:

    • (pointer)
