Name
hw_GetVirtualWriteFileBuffer -- get writable virtual file's buffer (V9.0)
Synopsis
APTR buffer = hw_GetVirtualWriteFileBuffer(APTR handle, ULONG *size,
                  struct hwTagList *tags);
Function
This function can be used to get access to a writable virtual file's underlying memory buffer. You have to pass a handle created by hw_CreateVirtualWriteFile() to this function. The underlying memory buffer will then be returned in buffer. If size isn't NULL, the size of that virtual file in bytes will be written to size.

Note that writable virtual files must never be used in your ClosePlugin() function because at that time the handler that controls writable virtual files inside Hollywood will no longer be there.

Inputs
handle
writable virtual file handle allocated by hw_CreateVirtualWriteFile()
size
pointer to a ULONG that will receive the virtual file's size or NULL
tags
reserved for future use, pass NULL for now
Results
buffer
