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.

splatBytesAll

Writes the same slice many times, performing the underlying write call as many times as necessary.

Writer.splatBytesAll

pub fn splatBytesAll(w: *Writer, bytes: []const u8, splat: usize) Error!void
