func Cast ¶

func Cast[T any](ptr uintptr) *T

Cast is used to centralize unsafe use C of allocated pointer. We take the address and then dereference it to trick go vet from creating a possible misuse of unsafe.Pointer

func CastNative ¶

func CastNative[N Native, T Native](ptr *N) *T

func CastWithOffset ¶

func CastWithOffset[T any](ptr uintptr, offset uint64) *T

CastWithOffset is the same as cast but adding an offset to the pointer by a multiple of the size of the type pointed.

func Cstring ¶

func Cstring(pinner *runtime.Pinner, name string) *byte

Cstring converts a go string to *byte that can be passed to C code.

func Gostring ¶

func Gostring(ptr *byte) string

Gostring copies a char* to a Go string.

func GostringSized ¶

func GostringSized(ptr *byte, size uint64) string

func NativeToUintptr ¶

func NativeToUintptr[T any](x T) uintptr

NativeToUintptr is a helper used by populate WafObject values with Go values

func PtrToUintptr ¶

func PtrToUintptr[T any](arg *T) uintptr

PtrToUintptr is a helper to centralize of usage of unsafe.Pointer do not use this function to cast interfaces

func Slice ¶ added in v4.2.0

func Slice[T any](ptr *T, length uint64) []T

func SliceData ¶

func SliceData[E any, T ~[]E](slice T) *E

func SliceToUintptr ¶

func SliceToUintptr[T any](arg []T) uintptr

func String ¶ added in v4.2.0

func String(ptr *byte, length uint64) string

func StringData ¶ added in v4.2.0

func StringData(str string) *byte

func UintptrToNative ¶

func UintptrToNative[T any](x uintptr) T

UintToNative is a helper used retrieve Go values from an uintptr encoded value from a WafObject
