How to load params and models from memory?

[malegend]

I want to put the models and params files into the project resources, and load them directly from memory.
Is there any way?
Thanks!

Now, it does not provide but ncnn looks like to provide this functions int load_param(const unsigned char* mem) and int load_model(const unsigned char* mem) .

Thanks. And when will the memory version be available?

I'm working on this issue but it may take more time.
Because load_model(const char* mem) does not copy argument. It stores only reference.
It means that loaded model may be corrupted after invoke load_model by GC.

So we have to implement DataReaderFromMemory.
But this class also stores only reference so it have it to be wrapped by wrapper class to copy memory.

Thanks, FULL of expectation.
