public class MessageBody

A Message request or response body.

Note that while length always reflects the full length of the message body, data is normally null, and will only be filled in after flatten is called. For client-side messages, this automatically happens for the response body after it has been fully read, unless you set the OVERWRITE_CHUNKS flags. Likewise, for server-side messages, the request body is automatically filled in after being read.

As an added bonus, when data is filled in, it is always terminated with a '\0' byte (which is not reflected in length).

Creation methods:

public MessageBody ()
Creates a new MessageBody.

Methods:

public void append (MemoryUse use, uint8[] data)
Appends data.length bytes from data to this according to use.
public void append_buffer (Buffer buffer)
Appends the data from buffer to this.
public void append_take (owned uint8[] data)
Appends data.length bytes from data to this.
public void complete ()
Tags this as being complete; Call this when using chunked encoding after you have appended the last chunk.
public Buffer flatten ()
Fills in this's data field with a buffer containing all of the data in this (plus an additional '\0' byte not counted by this's length field).
public void free ()
Frees this.
public bool get_accumulate ()
Gets the accumulate flag on this; see set_accumulate for details.
public Buffer? get_chunk (int64 offset)
Gets a Buffer containing data from this starting at offset.
public void got_chunk (Buffer chunk)
Handles the MessageBody part of receiving a chunk of data from the network.
public void set_accumulate (bool accumulate)
Sets or clears the accumulate flag on this .
public void truncate ()
Deletes all of the data in this.
public void wrote_chunk (Buffer chunk)
Handles the MessageBody part of writing a chunk of data to the network.

Fields:

public uint8[] data
public int64 length
