Constructor Details

#initialize(size, data_to_copy) ⇒ `Gsf::Blob`

Creates a new Gsf::Blob object to hold the specified data. The blob can then be used as a facility for reference-counting for the data. The data is copied internally, so the blob does not hold references to external chunks of memory. Data which will be copied into the blob, or nil if size is zero. Error domain: #GSF_ERROR

Possible errors: #GSF_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY if the data_to_copy could not be copied.

Parameters:

size (Integer) —
Size of the data in bytes.
data_to_copy (Array<Integer>)
