Function base65536::decode_slice

pub fn decode_slice<T: ?Sized>(
    input: &T, 
    buf: &mut [u8], 
    ignore_garbage: bool
) -> DecodeResult<usize> where
    T: AsRef<str>, 

Decode from a reference to a base65536-encoded string as octets. Writes into the supplied slice, returning how many bytes were written.

Panics

Panics if the slice is not long enough.

Errors

If the input string contains a character not inside of a base65536 block, Error::InvalidCodePoint will be retuned, along with the bad character, and it's position in the input.

Note that decode, decode_buf, and decode_slice are very strict by default, even failing on line breaks (such as those generated by encode and encode_buf when wrapping is enabled), as to match behaviour with the original implementation. To prevent this, use with the ignore_garbage option.

If the base65536 stream continues after a terminating padding character, Error::InvalidLength is returned.

Examples

use base65536::decode_slice;

let mut buf = [0; 3];
decode_slice("㘁ᔃ", &mut buf, false)?;
assert_eq!([1, 2, 3], buf);

let mut buf = [0; 11];
decode_slice("驨ꍬ啯𒁷ꍲᕤ", &mut buf, false)?;
assert_eq!(b"hello world", &buf);
