Description
A module containing semi-public ByteString internals. This exposes the ByteString representation and low level construction functions. Modules which extend the ByteString system will need to use this module while ideally most users will be able to make do with the public interface modules.

The ByteString type and representation
data ByteString Source

A space-efficient representation of a Word8 vector, supporting many efficient operations. A ByteString contains 8-bit characters only.

Low level introduction and elimination
create :: Int -> (Ptr Word8 -> IO ()) -> IO ByteStringSource
Create ByteString of size l and use action f to fill it's contents.
createAndTrim :: Int -> (Ptr Word8 -> IO Int) -> IO ByteStringSource

Given the maximum size needed and a function to make the contents of a ByteString, createAndTrim makes the ByteString. The generating function is required to return the actual final size (<= the maximum size), and the resulting byte array is realloced to this size.

createAndTrim is the main mechanism for creating custom, efficient ByteString functions, using Haskell or C functions to fill the space.

createAndTrim' :: Int -> (Ptr Word8 -> IO (Int, Int, a)) -> IO (ByteString, a)Source
unsafeCreate :: Int -> (Ptr Word8 -> IO ()) -> ByteStringSource
A way of creating ByteStrings outside the IO monad. The Int argument gives the final size of the ByteString. Unlike createAndTrim the ByteString is not reallocated if the final size is less than the estimated size.
mallocByteString :: Int -> IO (ForeignPtr a)Source
Wrapper of mallocForeignPtrBytes with faster implementation for GHC 6.5 builds newer than 060606
Conversion to and from ForeignPtrs
fromForeignPtrSource
:: ForeignPtr Word8
-> IntOffset
-> IntLength
-> ByteString
O(1) Build a ByteString from a ForeignPtr
toForeignPtrSource
:: ByteString
-> (ForeignPtr Word8, Int, Int)(ptr, offset, length)
O(1) Deconstruct a ForeignPtr from a ByteString
Utilities
inlinePerformIO :: IO a -> aSource
Just like unsafePerformIO, but we inline it. Big performance gains as it exposes lots of things to further inlining. Very unsafe. In particular, you should do no memory allocation inside an inlinePerformIO block. On Hugs this is just unsafePerformIO.
nullForeignPtr :: ForeignPtr Word8Source
The 0 pointer. Used to indicate the empty Bytestring.
Standard C Functions
c_strlen :: CString -> IO CSizeSource
c_free_finalizer :: FunPtr (Ptr Word8 -> IO ())Source
memchr :: Ptr Word8 -> Word8 -> CSize -> IO (Ptr Word8)Source
memcmp :: Ptr Word8 -> Ptr Word8 -> CSize -> IO CIntSource
memcpy :: Ptr Word8 -> Ptr Word8 -> CSize -> IO ()Source
memset :: Ptr Word8 -> Word8 -> CSize -> IO (Ptr Word8)Source
cbits functions
c_reverse :: Ptr Word8 -> Ptr Word8 -> CULong -> IO ()Source
c_intersperse :: Ptr Word8 -> Ptr Word8 -> CULong -> Word8 -> IO ()Source
c_maximum :: Ptr Word8 -> CULong -> IO Word8Source
c_minimum :: Ptr Word8 -> CULong -> IO Word8Source
c_count :: Ptr Word8 -> CULong -> Word8 -> IO CULongSource
Internal GHC magic
memcpy_ptr_baoff :: Ptr a -> RawBuffer -> CInt -> CSize -> IO (Ptr ())Source
Chars
w2c :: Word8 -> CharSource
Conversion between Word8 and Char. Should compile to a no-op.
c2w :: Char -> Word8Source
Unsafe conversion between Char and Word8. This is a no-op and silently truncates to 8 bits Chars > '\255'. It is provided as convenience for ByteString construction.
isSpaceWord8 :: Word8 -> BoolSource
Selects words corresponding to white-space characters in the Latin-1 range ordered by frequency.
isSpaceChar8 :: Char -> BoolSource
Selects white-space characters in the Latin-1 range
