Zig 0.17.0-dev (Split by item)

This is an example of documentation generated by ZigDoc, an alternative to Zig's built-in Auto Doc feature. See also examples in other modes/formats. The project being documented here (as the example) is the Zig library itself.

Equivalent to creating a positional reader and reading multiple times to fill buffer.

Returns number of bytes read into buffer. If less than buffer.len, end of file occurred.

    var index: usize = 0;
    while (index != buffer.len) {
        const amt = try file.readPositional(io, &.{buffer[index..]}, offset + index);
        if (amt == 0) break;
        index += amt;
    }
