Detailed Description

template<typename T>
class epee::span< T >

Non-owning sequence of data. Does not deep copy.

Inspired by gsl::span and/or boost::iterator_range. This class is intended to be used as a parameter type for functions that need to take a writable or read-only sequence of data. Most common cases are span<char> and span<std::uint8_t>. Using as a class member is only recommended if clearly documented as not doing a deep-copy. C-arrays are easily convertible to this type.

Note

Conversion from C string literal to span<const char> will include the NULL-terminator.

Never allows derived-to-base pointer conversion; an array of derived types is not an array of base types.
