how to get table's size

manpreet Best Answer 3 years ago

I'm receiving flat buffers objects from network, i'm using size prefixed buffers as suggested by the documentation. I'm doing verification before actually unmashalling the data. The problem is how do I know what size of the buffer should I verify?

buff = recv(sock);
Verifier v(buff.data(), ???); // buffer could be half of a buffer or two buffers, what should I supply to the 2nd argument to Verifier?
bool f = VerifySizePrefixedMessageBuffer(v);

Since the buffer received from network could be any size, it could be half of a flat buffer or two buffers, but I will need to give Verifier the size of one message buffer. Is there anyway to do this?
