## Typedef Documentation

using Vst2xChunk = std::vector<int8_t>

## Function Documentation

const Steinberg::Vst::TChar* VST3::toTChar | ( | const std::u16string & | str | ) |
| inline

std::u16string VST3::toString | ( | NumberT | value | ) |

convert a number to an UTF-16 string

Parameters

  value | number

Returns
  UTF-16 string

bool VST3::operator== | ( | const UID & | uid1,
|  | const UID & | uid2
| ) |  |
| inline

bool VST3::operator!= | ( | const UID & | uid1,
|  | const UID & | uid2
| ) |  |
| inline

bool VST3::operator< | ( | const UID & | uid1,
|  | const UID & | uid2
| ) |  |
| inline

Optional< Vst2xState > tryVst2StateLoad | ( | Steinberg::IBStream & | stream,
|  | Optional< int32_t > | vst2xUniqueID = `{}`
| ) |  |
| noexcept

Try loading the state from an old vst2 fxb format stream.

If successfully loaded, the state has either a chunk or programs but not both The Vst2xState::isBypassed boolean will be set if a Steinberg host has written the state into a project and the plug-in was bypassed.

Parameters

  stream | the input stream
  vst2xUniqueID | vst2 unique id expected to be stored in the stream [optional]. If present the fxb unique id header entry must be the same as this otherwise the return value is empty.

Returns
  on success the optional has a Vst2xState object with the data

bool writeVst2State | ( | const Vst2xState & | state,
|  | Steinberg::IBStream & | stream,
|  | bool | writeBypassState = `true`
| ) |  |
| noexcept

Write a vst2 fxb stream.

Writes the state into stream as a vst2 fxb format

Parameters

  state | the state which should be written
  stream | the stream where the state should be written into
  writeBypassState | write extra chunk with bypass state

Returns
  true on success

Optional< Vst2xProgram > tryVst2ProgramLoad | ( | Steinberg::IBStream & | stream,
|  | Optional< int32_t > | vst2xUniqueID
| ) |  |
| noexcept

Try loading the state from on old vst2 fxp format stream.

If successfully loaded, the program has either a chunk or plain values but not both

Parameters

  stream | the input stream
  vst2xUniqueID | vst2 unique id expected to be stored in the stream

Returns
  on success the optional has a Vst2xProgram object with the data

Empty
