Description

A GMimeStream implementation using a memory-mapped file backing store. This may be faster than GMimeStreamFs or GMimeStreamFile but you'll have to do your own performance checking to be sure for your particular application/platform.

Details

struct GMimeStreamMmap

struct GMimeStreamMmap;

A memory-mapped GMimeStream.

g_mime_stream_mmap_new ()

GMimeStream *       g_mime_stream_mmap_new              (int fd,
                                                         int prot,
                                                         int flags);

Creates a new GMimeStreamMmap object around fd.

`fd` :	file descriptor
`prot` :	protection flags
`flags` :	map flags
Returns :	a stream using `fd`.

g_mime_stream_mmap_new_with_bounds ()

GMimeStream *       g_mime_stream_mmap_new_with_bounds  (int fd,
                                                         int prot,
                                                         int flags,
                                                         gint64 start,
                                                         gint64 end);

Creates a new GMimeStreamMmap object around fd with bounds start and end.

`fd` :	file descriptor
`prot` :	protection flags
`flags` :	map flags
`start` :	start boundary
`end` :	end boundary
Returns :	a stream using `fd` with bounds `start` and `end`.
