Overview;To;;[I"tWe sometimes deal with certain kinds of objects that have arrays of the same typed fixed-size elements on a contiguous memory area as its internal representation.
Numo::NArray in numo-narray and Magick::Image in rmagick are typical examples of such objects.
MemoryView plays the role of the hub to share the internal data of such objects without copy among such libraries.;To;;[I"�Copy-less sharing of data is very important in some field such as data analysis, machine learning, and image processing. In these field, people need to handle large amount of on-memory data with several libraries. If we are forced to copy to exchange large data among libraries, a large amount of the data processing time must be occupied by copying data. You can avoid such wasting time by using MemoryView.;To;;[I"+MemoryView has two categories of APIs:;To;
;:NUMBER;[o;;0;[o;;[I"Producer API;Fo;;[I"nClasses can register own MemoryView entry which allows objects of that classes to expose their MemoryView;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"Consumer API;Fo;;[I"LConsumer API allows us to obtain and manage the MemoryView of an object;FS;	;
i;I"MemoryView structure;To;;[I"eA MemoryView structure, <code>rb_memory_view_t</code>, is used for exporting objects' MemoryView.
This structure contains the reference of the object, which is the owner of the MemoryView, the pointer to the head of exported memory, and the metadata that describes the structure of the memory. The metadata can describe multidimensional arrays with strides.;TS;	;
i;I"'The member of MemoryView structure;To;;[I"@The MemoryView structure consists of the following members.;To;
;;;[o;;0;[o;;[I"<code>VALUE obj</code>;To;;[I"ZThe reference to the original object that has the memory exported via the MemoryView.;Fo;;[I"�RubyVM manages the reference count of the MemoryView-exported objects to guard them from the garbage collection. The consumers do not have to struggle to guard this object from GC.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"<code>void *data</code>;To;;[I"4The pointer to the head of the exported memory.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"#<code>ssize_t byte_size</code>;To;;[I"DThe numbero f bytes in the memory pointed by <code>data</code>.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"<code>bool readonly</code>;To;;[I"S<code>true</code> for readonly memory, <code>false</code> for writable memory.;To;;0;[o;;[I"$<code>const char *format</code>;To;;[I"NA string to describeth e format of an element, or NULL for unsigned byte.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"#<code>ssize_t item_size</code>;To;;[I")The number of bytes in each element.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"M<code>const rb_memory_view_item_component_t *item_desc.components</code>;To;;[I">The array of the metadata of the component in an element.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I")<code>size_t item_desc.length</code>;To;;[I">The number of items in <code>item_desc.components</code>.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"<code>ssize_t ndim</code>;To;;[I"The number of dimensions.;Fo;;0;[o;;[I"&<code>const ssize_t *shape</code>;To;;[I"�A <code>ndim</code> size array indicating the number of elements in each dimension.
