bl_sam_buff_set_previous_pos(3)

LIBRARY
#include <biolibc/sam-buff.h>
-lbiolibc -lxtend

SYNOPSIS

int     bl_sam_buff_set_previous_pos(bl_sam_buff_t *bl_sam_buff_ptr, uint64_t new_previous_pos)

ARGUMENTS
bl_sam_buff_ptr Pointer to the structure to set
new_previous_pos The new value for previous_pos

DESCRIPTION
Mutator for previous_pos member in a bl_sam_buff_t structure. Use this function to set previous_pos in a bl_sam_buff_t variable from non-member functions. This function performs a direct assignment for scalar or pointer structure members. If previous_pos is a pointer, data previously pointed to should generally be freed before calling this function to avoid memory leaks. Note that there is an equivalent macro (), which performs this function with no data verification or function call overhead. Use the macro version to maximize performance where the validity of new_previous_pos is guaranteed by other means.

EXAMPLES
bl_sam_buff_t   bl_sam_buff;
uint64_t        new_previous_pos;
if ( bl_sam_buff_set_previous_pos(&bl_sam_buff, new_previous_pos) == BL_DATA_OK )
{
}
