vector

A fixed capacity vector.
STL equivalent: std::vector

etl::vector<typename T, size_t SIZE>
etl::vector_ext<typename T>

Inherits from etl::ivector<T>
etl::ivector may be used as a size independent pointer or reference type for any etl::vector instance.

There is a specialisation for pointers that means that just one instantiation of code for all pointer types.
The one caveat is that etl::vector cannot directly store pointers to functions. They must be wrapped in either a
custom struct, one of the etl::function or etl::deletgate templates, or std::function.

Has the ability to be copied by low level functions such as memcpy by use of a repair() function.
See the function reference for an example of use.

The size of the instance will be (SIZE * sizeof(T)) + (2 * sizeof(size_t)) + sizeof(T*)
For a 32 bit environment the overhead (compared to an array) will usually be 12 bytes.

External buffer

etl::vector_ext<typename T>
With this template the constructor expects pointer and size parameters to the externally provided buffer. This buffer
must not be shared concurrently with any other vector.
When a vector with an external buffer is moved, the data is moved, not the pointer to the buffer.

Constructor

Internal buffer
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>();
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize);
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize, const T& value);

template <typename TIterator>
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(TIterator begin, TIterator end);

etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(const etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>&);
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>&&);

External buffer
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(void* buffer, size_t max_size);
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize, void* buffer, size_t max_size);
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(size_t initialSize, const T& value, void* buffer, size_t
max_size);

template <typename TIterator>
etl::vector<typename T, const size_t SIZE>(TIterator begin, TIterator end, void* buffer, size_t

behaviour occurs.

void repair()
This function must be called if the vector has been copied via a low level method such as memcpy.
This can only be called from an etl::vector instance, unless ETL_IVECTOR_REPAIR_ENABLE is defined. Be aware that
doing so introduces a virtual function to the class.

Has no effect if the object has not been copied in this way.

NOTE:
The contained type must be trivially copyable.
Compilers that satisfy the C++11 type traits support check in platform.h will generate an assert if the type is
incompatible.

Example:
typedef etl::vector<int, 10> Data;

Data data(8, 1);
char buffer[sizeof(Data)];

memcpy(&buffer, &data, sizeof(Data));

Data& rdata(*reinterpret_cast<Data*>(buffer));

// Do not access the copied object in any way until you have called this.
rdata.repair();
