50 * @short_description: arrays of arbitrary elements which grow
51 * automatically as elements are added
53 * Arrays are similar to standard C arrays, except that they grow
54 * automatically as elements are added.
56 * Array elements can be of any size (though all elements of one array
57 * are the same size), and the array can be automatically cleared to
58 * '0's and zero-terminated.
60 * To create a new array use g_array_new().
62 * To add elements to an array, use g_array_append_val(),
63 * g_array_append_vals(), g_array_prepend_val(), and
64 * g_array_prepend_vals().
66 * To access an element of an array, use g_array_index().
68 * To set the size of an array, use g_array_set_size().
70 * To free an array, use g_array_free().
72 * <example>
73 * <title>Using a #GArray to store #gint values</title>
74 * <programlisting>
75 * GArray *garray;
76 * gint i;
77 * /<!-- -->* We create a new array to store gint values.
78 * We don't want it zero-terminated or cleared to 0's. *<!-- -->/
79 * garray = g_array_new (FALSE, FALSE, sizeof (gint));
80 * for (i = 0; i &lt; 10000; i++)
81 * g_array_append_val (garray, i);
82 * for (i = 0; i &lt; 10000; i++)
83 * if (g_array_index (garray, gint, i) != i)
84 * g_print ("ERROR: got &percnt;d instead of &percnt;d\n",
85 * g_array_index (garray, gint, i), i);
86 * g_array_free (garray, TRUE);

797 * @short_description: arrays of pointers to any type of data, which
798 * grow automatically as new elements are added
800 * Pointer Arrays are similar to Arrays but are used only for storing
801 * pointers.
803 * <note><para>If you remove elements from the array, elements at the
804 * end of the array are moved into the space previously occupied by the
805 * removed element. This means that you should not rely on the index of
806 * particular elements remaining the same. You should also be careful
807 * when deleting elements while iterating over the array.</para></note>
809 * To create a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_new().
811 * To add elements to a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_add().
813 * To remove elements from a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_remove(),
814 * g_ptr_array_remove_index() or g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast().
816 * To access an element of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_index().
818 * To set the size of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_set_size().
820 * To free a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_free().

1462 * @short_description: arrays of bytes
1464 * #GByteArray is a mutable array of bytes based on #GArray, to provide arrays
1465 * of bytes which grow automatically as elements are added.
1467 * To create a new #GByteArray use g_byte_array_new(). To add elements to a
1468 * #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_append(), and g_byte_array_prepend().
1470 * To set the size of a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_set_size().
1472 * To free a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_free().
1474 * <example>
