DataView

DataView udostępnia niskopoziowy interfejs do zapisu i odczytu typów numerycznych w formie ArrayBuffer niezależnie od kodowania platformy.

Składnia

new DataView(buffer [, byteOffset [, byteLength]])

Parametry

buffer: Istniejący ArrayBuffer lub SharedArrayBuffer używany jako pamięć dla obiektu DataView .
byteOffset Optional: The offset, in bytes, to the first byte in the specified buffer for the new view to reference. If not specified, the view of the buffer will start with the first byte.
byteLength Optional: The number of elements in the byte array. If unspecified, length of the view will match the buffer's length.

Return value

A new DataView object representing the specified data buffer.

Exceptions

RangeError: Thrown if the byteOffset and byteLength result in the specified view extending past the end of the buffer.

Multi-byte number formats are represented in memory differently depending on machine architecture, see Endianness for an explanation. DataView accessors provide explicit control of how data will be accessed irrespective of the platform architecture's endianness.

var littleEndian = (function() {
  var buffer = new ArrayBuffer(2);
  new DataView(buffer).setInt16(0, 256, true /* littleEndian */);
  // Int16Array uses the platform's endianness.
  return new Int16Array(buffer)[0] === 256;
})();
console.log(littleEndian); // true or false

Properties

All DataView instances inherit from DataView.prototype (en-US) and allows the addition of properties to all DataView objects.

Example

var dv = new DataView(buffer, 0);

dv.setInt16(1, 42);
dv.getInt16(1); //42

Compatibility notes

Starting with Firefox 40, DataView requires to be constructed with a new operator. Calling DataView() as a function without new, will throw a TypeError from now on.

var dv = DataView(buffer, 0);
// TypeError: calling a builtin DataView constructor without new is forbidden

var dv = new DataView(buffer, 0);
