NE_BUFFER_CLEAR(3)						neon API reference						NE_BUFFER_CLEAR(3)

NAME
       ne_buffer_clear, ne_buffer_grow, ne_buffer_altered - general purpose of group of functions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <ne_string.h>

       void ne_buffer_clear (ne_buffer *buf);

       void ne_buffer_altered (ne_buffer *buf);

       void ne_buffer_grow (ne_buffer *buf, size_t size);

DESCRIPTION
       The ne_buffer_clear function sets the string stored in buf to be the empty string ("").

       The  ne_buffer_altered  function  must  be used after the string stored in the buffer buf is modified by directly rather than using ne_buf-
       fer_append(3), ne_buffer_zappend(3) or ne_buffer_concat(3).

       The ne_buffer_grow function ensures that at least size bytes are allocated for the string; this can be used if a large amount  of  data	is
       going to be appended to the buffer and may result in more efficient memory allocation.
