virtual Bool_t ADF::Signal::SetAddress ( Char_t *  = 0x0, UInt_t  = 0u  )

inlinevirtual

To attach an external array (to avoid copies)

if external_sig == 0x0 returns to the inner allocated array and,

• with length == 0 returns to with the full length of the allocated inner array
• with length != 0, the given length if it does not exceed the allocate size ... otherwise the allocated size.

Warning

if used to bypass the streaming methods, the swapping is not garantee
