\doxysubsubsubsection{Detailed Description}


These functions provide some helper for a pseudo Copy-\/\+On-\/\+Write mechanism.

Eina\+\_\+\+Cow will return a const memory pointer to some default value that you will be able to change only by requesting a writable pointer. Later on a garbage collector can come online and try to merge back some of those pointers.
