Better abstraction to test view-style FFI APIs #4372

Closed reneme closed 1 month ago

reneme commented 1 month ago

The previous method required the caller to know the expected size of the to-be-viewed byte buffer before calling the FFI function. Now, the wrapper class takes care of the allocation transparently.

This abstraction will come in handy when building FFI integrations for the upcoming PQC algorithms in the context of #4368.
