buf: support peeking at string contents
Right now, the only way to get at the contents of a virBuffer is to destroy it. But there are cases in my upcoming patches where peeking at the contents makes life easier. I suppose this does open up the potential for bad code to dereference a stale pointer, by disregarding the docs that the return value is invalid on the next virBuf operation, but such is life. * src/util/buf.h (virBufferCurrentContent): New declaration. * src/util/buf.c (virBufferCurrentContent): Implement it. * src/libvirt_private.syms (buf.h): Export it. * tests/virbuftest.c (testBufAutoIndent): Test it.
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
