Detailed Description

Describes the struct by listing its size, members and operations.

This is the root of Eina_Value knowledge about the memory it's handling as a structure. It adds introspection, saying the byte size of the structure, its members and how to manage such members.

Field Documentation

ops

const Eina_Value_Struct_Operations* _Eina_Value_Struct_Desc::ops

operations, if NULL defaults will be used.

You may use operations to optimize member lookup using binary search or gperf hash.

member_count

unsigned int _Eina_Value_Struct_Desc::member_count

if > 0, specifies number of members.

If zero then members must be NULL terminated.
