Overview

Pointer is a class to handle C pointers

Class Method Summary

.[](value) (also: .to_ptr)

call-seq:
.from_native(value, ctx)
.malloc(size, free = nil)
.new(address) ⇒ fiddle_cptr constructor

Create a new pointer to address with an optional #size and freefunc.
.read(address, len) ⇒ String

Or read the memory at address address with length len and return a string with that memory.
.to_native(value, ctx)
.to_ptr(val) ⇒ cptr (also: .[])

Alias for .[].
.write(address, str)

Write bytes in str to the location pointed to by address.

Constructor Details

.new(address) ⇒ `fiddle_cptr` .new(address, size) ⇒ `fiddle_cptr` .new(address, size, freefunc) ⇒ `fiddle_cptr`

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