Function `dmd.root.outbuffer.OutBuffer.extractSlice`

Extract the data as a slice and take ownership of it.


						
				char[] extractSlice
				(
				

				  bool nullTerminate = false
				

				) pure;

When true is passed as an argument, this function behaves like dmd.utils.toDString(thisbuffer.extractChars()).

Parameters

Name	Description
nullTerminate	When `true`, the data will be `null` terminated. This is useful to call C functions or store the result in `Strings`. Defaults to `false`.
