  Fields in jdk.incubator.foreign declared as MemoryAddress
  Modifier and Type
  Field
  Description
  `static final MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAddress.`NULL`
  The native memory address instance modelling the `NULL` address, associated with the global resource scope.
  Methods in jdk.incubator.foreign that return MemoryAddress
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAddress.`addOffset(long offset)`
  Creates a new memory address with given offset (in bytes), which might be negative, from current one.
  `MemoryAddress`
  Addressable.`address()`
  Map this object into a `MemoryAddress` instance.
  `MemoryAddress`
  CLinker.VaList.`address()`
  Returns the memory address of the C `va_list` associated with this instance.
  `default MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAddress.`address()`
  `MemoryAddress`
  MemorySegment.`address()`
  The base memory address associated with this memory segment.
  `static MemoryAddress`
  CLinker.`allocateMemory(long size)`
  Allocates memory of given size using malloc.
  `static MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAccess.`getAddress(MemorySegment segment)`
  Reads a memory address from given segment, with byte order set to `ByteOrder.nativeOrder()`.
  `static MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAccess.`getAddressAtIndex(MemorySegment segment, long index)`
  Reads a memory address from given segment and element index, with byte order set to `ByteOrder.nativeOrder()`.
  `static MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAccess.`getAddressAtOffset(MemorySegment segment, long offset)`
  Reads a memory address from given segment and offset, with byte order set to `ByteOrder.nativeOrder()`.
  `static MemoryAddress`
  MemoryAddress.`ofLong(long value)`
  Obtain a native memory address instance from given long address.
  `MemoryAddress`
  CLinker.`upcallStub(MethodHandle target, FunctionDescriptor function, ResourceScope scope)`
  Allocates a native stub with given scope which can be passed to other foreign functions (as a function pointer); calling such a function pointer from native code will result in the execution of the provided method handle.
  `MemoryAddress`
  CLinker.VaList.`vargAsAddress(MemoryLayout layout)`
  Reads the next value as a `MemoryAddress` and advances this va list's position.
  Methods in jdk.incubator.foreign that return types with arguments of type MemoryAddress
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `Optional<MemoryAddress>`
  SymbolLookup.`lookup(String name)`
  Looks up a symbol with given name in this lookup.
  Methods in jdk.incubator.foreign with parameters of type MemoryAddress
  Modifier and Type
  Method
  Description
  `default MemorySegment`
  MemorySegment.`asSlice(MemoryAddress newBase)`
  Obtains a new memory segment view whose base address is the given address, and whose new size is computed by subtracting the address offset relative to this segment (see `segmentOffset(MemorySegment)`) from this segment size.
  `default MemorySegment`
  MemorySegment.`asSlice(MemoryAddress newBase, long newSize)`
  Obtains a new memory segment view whose base address is the given address, and whose new size is specified by the given argument.
  `static void`
  CLinker.`freeMemory(MemoryAddress addr)`
  Frees the memory pointed by the given memory address.
  `static CLinker.VaList`
  CLinker.VaList.`ofAddress(MemoryAddress address)`
  Constructs a new `VaList` instance out of a memory address pointing to an existing C `va_list`, backed by the global resource scope.
  `static CLinker.VaList`
  CLinker.VaList.`ofAddress(MemoryAddress address, ResourceScope scope)`
  Constructs a new `VaList` instance out of a memory address pointing to an existing C `va_list`, with given resource scope.
  `static String`
  CLinker.`toJavaString(MemoryAddress addr)`
  Converts a UTF-8 encoded, null-terminated C string stored at given address into a Java string.
