为什么我的（堆分配的）缓冲区没有被写入zig

Question

我是一名来自 Rust 和 Golang 的 Zig 初学者。我已经在网上搜索了几个小时，但只找到了不适合我的问题的极其复杂且低效的解决方案。

//Import standard library
const std = @import("std");

pub fn main() !void {
    //Create an allocator
    var gpa = std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator(.{}){};

    //Open desired file
    var file = try std.fs.cwd().openFile("./state-of-union.txt", .{});
    defer file.close();

    //Regular buffer for demonstration purposes
    var b = std.mem.zeroes([100]u8);
    const x = try file.readAll(&b);

    std.debug.print("Test bytes read: {any}\n", .{x});

    //My *ACTUAL* buffer where the error arises
    var buffer = std.ArrayList(u8).init(gpa.allocator());
    defer buffer.deinit();
    const temp = try file.readAll(buffer.items);

    //Added to show that my code is not reading into my heap allocated array
    std.debug.print("Actual bytes read: {any}\n", .{temp});

    //Print file contents as string
    std.debug.print("{s}\n", .{buffer.items});
}

输出：

~\Desktop\ztest via ↯ v0.12.0-dev.3152+90c1a2c41 
❯ zig build run
Test bytes read: 100
Actual bytes read: 0

现在，如果我尝试将 buffer.items 更改为 &buffer.items 就像我对堆栈分配的缓冲区所做的那样，我会收到编译时错误：

主函数打开所需的文件，然后（演示后）声明一个堆分配的缓冲区并尝试从文件读取数据并写入缓冲区。然后打印缓冲区内容。

感谢任何帮助，我真的不知道出了什么问题。（另外，如果有人可以将我链接到一些官方的 zig 示例，那将是真正令人难以置信的。我很难找到它们。）
