48 * @title: Arrays
49 * @short_description: arrays of arbitrary elements which grow
50 * automatically as elements are added
52 * Arrays are similar to standard C arrays, except that they grow
53 * automatically as elements are added.
55 * Array elements can be of any size (though all elements of one array
56 * are the same size), and the array can be automatically cleared to
57 * '0's and zero-terminated.
59 * To create a new array use g_array_new().
61 * To add elements to an array, use g_array_append_val(),
62 * g_array_append_vals(), g_array_prepend_val(), and
63 * g_array_prepend_vals().
65 * To access an element of an array, use g_array_index().
67 * To set the size of an array, use g_array_set_size().
69 * To free an array, use g_array_free().
71 * Here is an example that stores integers in a #GArray:
72 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
73 * GArray *garray;
74 * gint i;
75 * // We create a new array to store gint values.
76 * // We don't want it zero-terminated or cleared to 0's.
77 * garray = g_array_new (FALSE, FALSE, sizeof (gint));
78 * for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
79 * g_array_append_val (garray, i);
80 * for (i = 0; i < 10000; i++)
81 * if (g_array_index (garray, gint, i) != i)
82 * g_print ("ERROR: got %d instead of %d\n",
83 * g_array_index (garray, gint, i), i);
84 * g_array_free (garray, TRUE);

825 * @title: Pointer Arrays
826 * @short_description: arrays of pointers to any type of data, which
827 * grow automatically as new elements are added
829 * Pointer Arrays are similar to Arrays but are used only for storing
830 * pointers.
832 * If you remove elements from the array, elements at the end of the
833 * array are moved into the space previously occupied by the removed
834 * element. This means that you should not rely on the index of particular
835 * elements remaining the same. You should also be careful when deleting
836 * elements while iterating over the array.
838 * To create a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_new().
840 * To add elements to a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_add().
842 * To remove elements from a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_remove(),
843 * g_ptr_array_remove_index() or g_ptr_array_remove_index_fast().
845 * To access an element of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_index().
847 * To set the size of a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_set_size().
849 * To free a pointer array, use g_ptr_array_free().
851 * An example using a #GPtrArray:
852 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
853 * GPtrArray *array;
854 * gchar *string1 = "one";
855 * gchar *string2 = "two";
856 * gchar *string3 = "three";

860 * g_ptr_array_add (array, (gpointer) string2);
861 * g_ptr_array_add (array, (gpointer) string3);
863 * if (g_ptr_array_index (array, 0) != (gpointer) string1)
864 * g_print ("ERROR: got %p instead of %p\n",

1684 * #GByteArray is a mutable array of bytes based on #GArray, to provide arrays
1685 * of bytes which grow automatically as elements are added.
1687 * To create a new #GByteArray use g_byte_array_new(). To add elements to a
1688 * #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_append(), and g_byte_array_prepend().
1690 * To set the size of a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_set_size().
1692 * To free a #GByteArray, use g_byte_array_free().
1694 * An example for using a #GByteArray:
1695 * |[<!-- language="C" -->
1696 * GByteArray *gbarray;
1697 * gint i;

1705 * g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i] == 'a');
1706 * g_assert (gbarray->data[4*i+1] == 'b');
