5.1.1 Macros

Macro: with-static-vector ((var length &rest args &key element-type initial-contents initial-element) &body body) ¶

Bind PTR-VAR to a static vector of length LENGTH and execute BODY within its dynamic extent. The vector is freed upon exit.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: impl-sbcl.lisp.

Macro: with-static-vectors (((var length &rest args) &rest more-clauses) &body body) ¶

Allocate multiple static vectors at once.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: constructor.lisp.

Previous: Macros, Up: Public Interface [Contents][Index]

5.1.2 Ordinary functions

Function: fill-foreign-memory (pointer length value) ¶

Fill LENGTH octets in foreign memory area POINTER with VALUE.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: impl-sbcl.lisp.

Function: free-static-vector (vector) ¶

Free VECTOR, which must be a vector created by MAKE-STATIC-VECTOR.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: impl-sbcl.lisp.

Function: make-static-vector (length &key element-type initial-element initial-contents alignment) ¶

Create a simple vector of length LENGTH and type ELEMENT-TYPE which will not be moved by the garbage collector. The vector might be allocated in foreign memory so you must always call FREE-STATIC-VECTOR to free it.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: constructor.lisp.

Function: replace-foreign-memory (dst-ptr src-ptr length) ¶

Copy LENGTH octets from foreign memory area SRC-PTR to DST-PTR.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: impl-sbcl.lisp.

Function: static-vector-pointer (vector &key offset) ¶

Return a foreign pointer to the beginning of VECTOR + OFFSET octets. VECTOR must be a vector created by MAKE-STATIC-VECTOR.

Package: static-vectors.
Source: impl-sbcl.lisp.
