ArrayBufferView — common properties for types based on ArrayBuffers

Synopsis

ArrayBufferView serves as a superclass for types that provide access to the bytes of an ArrayBuffer. You can’t create an ArrayBufferView directly: it exists to define the common properties for subtypes like TypedArray and DataView.

Properties

readonly ArrayBuffer buffer

The underlying ArrayBuffer that this object is a view of.

readonly unsigned long byteLength

The length, in bytes, of the portion of buffer that is accessible through this view.

readonly unsigned long byteOffset

The starting position, in bytes, of the portion of the buffer that is accessible through this view.
