GgitDiffnew_buffers

Declaration [src] 

GgitDiff*
ggit_diff_new_buffers (
  const guint8* buffer1,
  gssize buffer1_len,
  const gchar* buffer1_as_path,
  const guint8* buffer2,
  gssize buffer2_len,
  const gchar* buffer2_as_path,
  GgitDiffOptions* diff_options,
  GError** error
)

Description [src]

Same as ggit_diff_blobs() but using a buffers. Creates a GgitDiff which compares buffer1 and buffer2.

If diff_options is NULL then the defaults specified in ggit_diff_options_new() are used.

Parameters

buffer1

Type: An array of guint8

A buffer to diff from.

The argument can be NULL.
The length of the array is specified in the buffer1_len argument.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
buffer1_len

Type: gssize

Length of buffer1.

buffer1_as_path

Type: const gchar*

Treat buffer1 as if it had this filename, or NULL,.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
buffer2

Type: An array of guint8

A buffer to diff to.

The argument can be NULL.
The length of the array is specified in the buffer2_len argument.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
buffer2_len

Type: gssize

Length of buffer2.

buffer2_as_path

Type: const gchar*

Treat buffer2 as if it had this filename, or NULL,.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
The value is a NUL terminated UTF-8 string.
diff_options

Type: GgitDiffOptions

A GgitDiffOptions, or NULL.

The argument can be NULL.
The data is owned by the caller of the function.
error

Type: GError **

The return location for a recoverable error.

The argument can be NULL.
If the return location is not NULL, then you must initialize it to a NULL GError*.
The argument will be left initialized to NULL by the constructor if there are no errors.
In case of error, the argument will be set to a newly allocated GError; the caller will take ownership of the data, and be responsible for freeing it.

Return value

Type: GgitDiff

A newly allocated GgitDiff if there was no error, NULL otherwise.

The caller of the function takes ownership of the data, and is responsible for freeing it.
The return value can be NULL.
