A wrapper around the native DataView which can handle multiple ArrayBuffers.
npm install multi-buffer-data-viewA wrapper around the native DataView which can handle multiple ArrayBuffers.
This module provides a wrapper around the native DataView. But instead of supporting only one ArrayBuffer as the backing memory the MultiBufferDataView exported by this module can operate across multiple ArrayBuffers.
The multi-buffer-data-view module is available on npm and can be installed as usual.
``shell`
npm install multi-buffer-data-view
It exports only one class called MultiBufferDataView which can be imported like this:
`js`
import { MultiBufferDataView } from 'multi-buffer-data-view';
A MultiBufferDataView behaves almost like a native DataView with the notable exception that it can handle multiple ArrayBuffers.
`js
const anArrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(23);
const anotherArrayBuffer = new ArrayBuffer(41);
new MultiBufferDataView([anArrayBuffer, anotherArrayBuffer]);
`
The little example above will create a MultiBufferDataView which uses all 64 bytes that are available in the given ArrayBuffers. However it is also possible to limit the range of accessible bytes by providing a byteOffset or a byteLength as additional arguments.
`js`
new MultiBufferDataView([anArrayBuffer, anotherArrayBuffer], 12, 24);
When creating a MultiBufferDataView` with the parameters above it will only use the last 11 bytes of the first ArrayBuffer and the first 13 bytes of the second ArrayBuffer.
