ArrayBufferView

By Flavio Copes

Learn what an ArrayBufferView is, a portion of an ArrayBuffer with buffer, byteOffset, and byteLength properties, used by typed arrays and DataViews.

An ArrayBufferView is a portion of an ArrayBuffer.

It has an offset, and a length.

Once created, it provides 3 read-only properties:

• buffer points to the original ArrayBuffer
• byteOffset is the offset on that buffer
• byteLength is the length of its content in bytes

Typed Arrays and DataViews are instances of an ArrayBufferView.
