# nw_framer_parse_output(_:_:_:_:_:)

Examines the content of output data while inside your output handler.

```
func nw_framer_parse_output(_ framer: nw_framer_t, _ minimum_incomplete_length: Int, _ maximum_length: Int, _ temp_buffer: UnsafeMutablePointer<UInt8>?, _ parse: (UnsafeMutablePointer<UInt8>?, Int, Bool) -> Int) -> Bool
```

## Parameters

`framer`

A network framer instance.

`minimum_incomplete_length`

The minimum number of bytes that should be delivered to the parse completion.

`maximum_length`

The maximum number of bytes that should be delivered to the parse completion.

`temp_buffer`

An optional buffer into which the parser will copy bytes. Use this if you need to make guarantees about byte alignment.

`parse`

A completion handler that will be called inline to examine a region of bytes.

## Return Value

Returns true if the requested length was available to parse, or false if the conditions could not be met.
