	Set to the given value. By default sets all values.
Methods to make sure there is enough space.
void	ensure (unsigned int req_size)
	Extend if needed, copying existing data.
void	ensure (unsigned int req_size, bool copy)
	Make sure there is enough space, copying if requested.
void	ensure (unsigned int req_size, const TYPE &set_to, int howmany=-1)
	Make sure there is enough space, setting to a known value.
Access to the memory itself.
TYPE *	b (void)
	Simple access as a pointer.
const TYPE *	b (void) const
	Read-only access when the EST_TBuffer is a constant.

Detailed Description

template<class TYPE>
class EST_TBuffer< TYPE >

Extending buffer class.

This class provides the convenience of arrays which change in size at run time rather more efficiently than the full EST_TVector class would.

Buffers can only be expanded and when a buffer is no longer needed (i.e. when the variable goes out of scope) the memory is not deleted, rather it is saved for re-use as a new buffer.

A typical use would be a buffer to hold a windowed section of a signal inside a signal processing loop where the size of the window changes from iteration to iteration.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class T >

EST_TBuffer< T >::EST_TBuffer	(	unsigned int	size = TBUFFER_DEFAULT_SIZE,
		int	step = TBUFFER_DEFAULT_STEP
	)

Create with size and increment. Increment can be negative for percentage growth.

Tries to use a buffer from EST_old_buffers[] if there is one which is suitable
