NAME

       TSMBufferCreate - traffic Server marshall buffer API

SYNOPSIS

          #include <ts/ts.h>

       TSMBuffer TSMBufferCreate(void)

       TSReturnCode TSMBufferDestroy(TSMBuffer bufp)

       TSReturnCode TSHandleMLocRelease(TSMBuffer bufp, TSMLoc parent, TSMLoc mloc)

DESCRIPTION

       The  marshal  buffer  or  TSMBuffer is a heap data structure that stores parsed URLs, MIME
       headers and HTTP headers. You can allocate new objects out of marshal buffers, and  change
       the  values within the marshal buffer.  Whenever you manipulate an object, you require the
       handle to the object (TSMLoc) and the marshal buffer containing the object (TSMBuffer).

       Any marshal buffer fetched by transaction getters will be  used  by  other  parts  of  the
       system. Be careful not to destroy these shared, transaction marshal buffers.

       TSMBufferCreate()  creates  a  new  marshal  buffer  and  initializes the reference count.
       TSMBufferDestroy() Ignores the reference count and destroys the marshal buffer  bufp.  The
       internal  data  buffer associated with the marshal buffer is also destroyed if the marshal
       buffer allocated it.

       TSHandleMLocRelease() Releases the TSMLoc mloc created from the TSMLoc parent. If a TSMLoc
       is  obtained  from  a  transaction, it does not have a parent TSMLoc. Use the the constant
       TS_NULL_MLOC as its parent.

RETURN VALUES

       TSMBufferDestroy() and TSHandleMLocRelease() return TS_SUCCESS on success, or TS_ERROR  on
       failure.  TSMBufferCreate() returns the new TSMBuffer.

EXAMPLES

          #include <ts/ts.h>

          static void
          copyResponseMimeHdr (TSCont pCont, TSHttpTxn pTxn)
          {
              TSMBuffer respHdrBuf, tmpBuf;
              TSMLoc respHttpHdrLoc, tmpMimeHdrLoc;

              if (!TSHttpTxnClientRespGet(pTxn, &respHdrBuf, &respHttpHdrLoc)) {
                  TSError("couldn't retrieve client response header0);
                  TSHandleMLocRelease(respHdrBuf, TS_NULL_MLOC, respHttpHdrLoc);
                  goto done;
              }

              tmpBuf = TSMBufferCreate();
              tmpMimeHdrLoc = TSMimeHdrCreate(tmpBuf);
              TSMimeHdrCopy(tmpBuf, tmpMimeHdrLoc, respHdrBuf, respHttpHdrLoc);
              TSHandleMLocRelease(tmpBuf, TS_NULL_MLOC, tmpMimeHdrLoc);
              TSHandleMLocRelease(respHdrBuf, TS_NULL_MLOC, respHttpHdrLoc);
              TSMBufferDestroy(tmpBuf);

          done:
              TSHttpTxnReenable(pTxn, TS_EVENT_HTTP_CONTINUE);
          }
