blobCreateSubBlob

fnharfbuzz.blob.Blob blobCreateSubBlob(harfbuzz.blob.Blob parent, uint offset, uint length)

Returns a blob that represents a range of bytes in parent. The new blob is always created with #HB_MEMORY_MODE_READONLY, meaning that it will never modify data in the parent blob. The parent data is not expected to be modified, and will result in undefined behavior if it is.

Makes parent immutable.

Parameters

parentParent blob.
offsetStart offset of sub-blob within parent, in bytes.
lengthLength of sub-blob.

Returns

New blob, or the empty blob if something failed or if

length is zero or offset is beyond the end of parent's data. Destroy with [harfbuzz.global.blobDestroy].
