The byteLength accessor property of DataView instances returns the length (in bytes) of this view.
// Create an ArrayBuffer with a size in bytes
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(16);
const view1 = new DataView(buffer);
const view2 = new DataView(buffer, 12, 4); // From byte 12 for the next 4 bytes
console.log(view1.byteLength + view2.byteLength); // 16 + 4
// Expected output: 20
The byteLength property is an accessor property whose set accessor function is undefined, meaning that you can only read this property. The value is established when an DataView is constructed and cannot be changed. If the DataView is not specifying an offset or a byteLength, the byteLength of the referenced ArrayBuffer or SharedArrayBuffer will be returned.
const buffer = new ArrayBuffer(8);
const dataview = new DataView(buffer);
dataview.byteLength; // 8 (matches the byteLength of the buffer)
const dataview2 = new DataView(buffer, 1, 5);
dataview2.byteLength; // 5 (as specified when constructing the DataView)
const dataview3 = new DataView(buffer, 2);
dataview3.byteLength; // 6 (due to the offset of the constructed DataView)
