Detailed Description

This is the structure that holds the bit-stream when encoding or decoding with Speex. It allows some manipulations as well.

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct SpeexBits SpeexBits

Bit-packing data structure representing (part of) a bit-stream.

Function Documentation

void speex_bits_advance	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		int	n
	)

Advances the position of the "bit cursor" in the stream

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
n	Number of bits to advance

void speex_bits_destroy

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Frees all resources associated to a SpeexBits struct. Right now this does nothing since no resources are allocated, but this could change in the future.

void speex_bits_init

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Initializes and allocates resources for a SpeexBits struct

void speex_bits_init_buffer	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		void *	buff,
		int	buf_size
	)

Initializes SpeexBits struct using a pre-allocated buffer

void speex_bits_insert_terminator

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Insert a terminator so that the data can be sent as a packet while auto-detecting the number of frames in each packet

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on

int speex_bits_nbytes

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Returns the number of bytes in the bit-stream, including the last one even if it is not "full"

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on

Returns

Number of bytes in the stream

void speex_bits_pack	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		int	data,
		int	nbBits
	)

Append bits to the bit-stream

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
data	Value to append as integer
nbBits	number of bits to consider in "data"

int speex_bits_peek

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Get the value of the next bit in the stream, without modifying the "cursor" position

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on

Returns

Value of the bit peeked (one bit only)

unsigned int speex_bits_peek_unsigned	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		int	nbBits
	)

Same as speex_bits_unpack_unsigned, but without modifying the cursor position

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
nbBits	Number of bits to look for

Returns

Value of the bits peeked, interpreted as unsigned

void speex_bits_read_from	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		char *	bytes,
		int	len
	)

Initializes the bit-stream from the data in an area of memory

void speex_bits_read_whole_bytes	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		char *	bytes,
		int	len
	)

Append bytes to the bit-stream

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
bytes	pointer to the bytes what will be appended
len	Number of bytes of append

int speex_bits_remaining

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Returns the number of bits remaining to be read in a stream

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on

Returns

Number of bits that can still be read from the stream

void speex_bits_reset

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Resets bits to initial value (just after initialization, erasing content)

void speex_bits_rewind

(

SpeexBits *

bits

)

Rewind the bit-stream to the beginning (ready for read) without erasing the content

void speex_bits_set_bit_buffer	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		void *	buff,
		int	buf_size
	)

Sets the bits in a SpeexBits struct to use data from an existing buffer (for decoding without copying data)

int speex_bits_unpack_signed	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		int	nbBits
	)

Interpret the next bits in the bit-stream as a signed integer

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
nbBits	Number of bits to interpret

Returns

A signed integer represented by the bits read

unsigned int speex_bits_unpack_unsigned	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		int	nbBits
	)

Interpret the next bits in the bit-stream as an unsigned integer

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
nbBits	Number of bits to interpret

Returns

An unsigned integer represented by the bits read

int speex_bits_write	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		char *	bytes,
		int	max_len
	)

Write the content of a bit-stream to an area of memory

Parameters

bits	Bit-stream to operate on
bytes	Memory location where to write the bits
max_len	Maximum number of bytes to write (i.e. size of the "bytes" buffer)

Returns

Number of bytes written to the "bytes" buffer

int speex_bits_write_whole_bytes	(	SpeexBits *	bits,
		char *	bytes,
		int	max_len
	)

Like speex_bits_write, but writes only the complete bytes in the stream. Also removes the written bytes from the stream
