Function Documentation

av_file_map()

int av_file_map	(	const char *	filename,
		uint8_t **	bufptr,
		size_t *	size,
		int	log_offset,
		void *	log_ctx
	)

Read the file with name filename, and put its content in a newly allocated buffer or map it with mmap() when available.

In case of success set *bufptr to the read or mmapped buffer, and *size to the size in bytes of the buffer in *bufptr. Unlike mmap this function succeeds with zero sized files, in this case *bufptr will be set to NULL and *size will be set to 0. The returned buffer must be released with av_file_unmap().

Parameters

log_offset	loglevel offset used for logging
log_ctx	context used for logging

Returns

a non negative number in case of success, a negative value corresponding to an AVERROR error code in case of failure

av_file_unmap()

void av_file_unmap	(	uint8_t *	bufptr,
		size_t	size
	)

Unmap or free the buffer bufptr created by av_file_map().

Parameters

size	size in bytes of bufptr, must be the same as returned by av_file_map()

Examples

avio_reading.c.

av_tempfile()

int av_tempfile	(	const char *	prefix,
		char **	filename,
		int	log_offset,
		void *	log_ctx
	)

Wrapper to work around the lack of mkstemp() on mingw.

Also, tries to create file in /tmp first, if possible. *prefix can be a character constant; *filename will be allocated internally.

Returns

file descriptor of opened file (or negative value corresponding to an AVERROR code on error) and opened file name in **filename.

Note

On very old libcs it is necessary to set a secure umask before calling this, av_tempfile() can't call umask itself as it is used in libraries and could interfere with the calling application.

Deprecated:

as fd numbers cannot be passed saftely between libs on some platforms
