Crate async_bincode [−] [src]
Asynchronous access to a bincode-encoded item stream.
This crate enables you to asynchronously read from a bincode-encoded stream, or write
bincoded-encoded values. bincode does not support this natively, as it cannot easily resume
from stream errors while encoding or decoding.
async-bincode works around that on the receive side by buffering received bytes until a full
element's worth of data has been received, and only then calling into bincode. To make this
work, it relies on the sender to prefix each encoded element with its encoded size. See
[serialize_into] for a convenience method that provides this.
On the write side, async-bincode buffers the serialized values, and asynchronously sends the
resulting bytestream.
