Helper functions for our FIFO buffer library (fifo_buffer.h) that allows growing the buffer on demand.
This library is not thread safe.

void growing_fifo_append | ( | struct fifo_buffer ** | buffer_p, | |
const void * | data, | |||
size_t | length | |||
) |
A helper function that combines growing_fifo_write(), memcpy(), fifo_buffer_append().
struct fifo_buffer* growing_fifo_new | ( | void | ) | [read] |
Allocate a new fifo_buffer with the default size.
void* growing_fifo_write | ( | struct fifo_buffer ** | buffer_p, | |
size_t | length | |||
) |
Prepares writing to the buffer, see fifo_buffer_write() for details.
The difference is that this function will automatically grow the buffer if it is too small.
The caller is responsible for limiting the capacity of the buffer.
length | the number of bytes that will be written |
