We can just reserve the memory then perform successive insertions
instead of needing to use memcpy. This also avoids the need to zero out
the output vector's memory before performing the insertions.
We can also std::move the output std::vector into the destination so
that we don't need to make a completely new copy of the vector, getting
rid of an unnecessary allocation.
Additionally, we can use iterators to determine the beginning and end
ranges of the std::vector instances that comprise the output vector, as
the end of one range just becomes the beginning for the next successive
range, and since std::vector's iterator constructor copies data within
the range [begin, end), this is more straightforward and gets rid of the
need to have an offset variable that keeps getting incremented to
determine where to do the next std::memcpy.
Given it's only used in one spot and has a fairly generic name, we can
just specify it directly in the function call. This also the benefit of
automatically moving it.
Instead, we can make it part of the type and make named variables for
them, so they only require one definition (and if they ever change for
whatever reason, they only need to be changed in one spot).
Given the VirtualFile instance isn't stored into the class as a data
member, or written to, this can just be turned into a const reference,
as the constructor doesn't need to make a copy of it.
