moveUpdate(fromContentsOf:)
Updates this buffer’s initialized memory initialized memory by moving every element from the source buffer slice, leaving the source memory uninitialized.
Declaration
func moveUpdate(fromContentsOf source: Slice<UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<Element>>) -> UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<Element>.IndexParameters
- source:
A buffer slice containing the values to move. The memory region underlying
sourcemust be initialized.
Return Value
An index one past the index of the last element updated.
Discussion
Prior to calling the moveUpdate(fromContentsOf:) method on a buffer, the first source.count elements of the buffer’s memory must be initialized, or the buffer’s Element type must be a trivial type. The memory referenced by source is uninitialized after the function returns. The buffer must reference enough initialized memory to accommodate source.count elements.
The returned index is one past the index of the last element updated. If source contains no elements, the returned index is equal to the buffer’s startIndex. If source contains as many elements as the buffer can hold, the returned index is equal to the buffer’s endIndex.
