bool read_diffusion_binary_value ( const DIFFUSION_VALUE_T value,
void **  binary,
DIFFUSION_API_ERROR error 
)

Get the binary value.

Parameters
valuevalue to retrieve the binary data from.
binarypointer to a pointer where the binary data will be stored. Must be freed after use.
errorpopulated if an error occurs. Can be NULL.
Returns
true if the value is successfully read and binary pointer value set to the binary data. False otherwise.
bool write_diffusion_binary_value ( const void *  binary,
const BUF_T buf,
size_t  len 
)

Write binary data into a BUF_T for an update.

Parameters
binaryvalue to be written into the BUF_T
bufBUF_T to write the binary value into
lenthe length of the binary value to be written into the BUF_T
Returns
True if the value was successfully written into the BUF_T. False will be returned if buf is NULL.
