36 * Buffer to print data progressively
37 *
38 * The string buffer grows as necessary and is always 0-terminated.
39 * The content of the string is never accessed, and thus is
40 * encoding-agnostic and can even hold binary data.
41 *
42 * Small buffers are kept in the structure itself, and thus require no
43 * memory allocation at all (unless the contents of the buffer is needed
44 * after the structure goes out of scope). This is almost as lightweight as
45 * declaring a local "char buf[512]".
46 *
47 * The length of the string can go beyond the allocated size: the buffer is
48 * then truncated, but the functions still keep account of the actual total
49 * length.
50 *
51 * In other words, buf->len can be greater than buf->size and records the
52 * total length of what would have been to the buffer if there had been
53 * enough memory.
54 *
55 * Append operations do not need to be tested for failure: if a memory
56 * allocation fails, data stop being appended to the buffer, but the length
57 * is still updated. This situation can be tested with
58 * av_bprint_is_complete().
59 *
60 * The size_max field determines several possible behaviours:
61 *
62 * size_max = -1 (= UINT_MAX) or any large value will let the buffer be
63 * reallocated as necessary, with an amortized linear cost.
64 *
65 * size_max = 0 prevents writing anything to the buffer: only the total
66 * length is computed. The write operations can then possibly be repeated in
67 * a buffer with exactly the necessary size
68 * (using size_init = size_max = len + 1).
69 *
70 * size_max = 1 is automatically replaced by the exact size available in the
71 * structure itself, thus ensuring no dynamic memory allocation. The
72 * internal buffer is large enough to hold a reasonable paragraph of text,
73 * such as the current paragraph.
