Struct binary_layout::FieldView
source · pub struct FieldView<S, F: Field> { /* private fields */ }
Expand description
A field view represents the field metadata stored in a Field plus it stores the underlying
storage data it operates on, either as a reference to a slice &[u8]
, &mut [u8]
, or as
an owning Vec<u8>
.
Since this API remembers the underlying storage data in a view object, you don’t have to pass it in each time you’re accessing a field. If you rather prefer an API that does not do that, take a look at the Field API.
§Example:
use binary_layout::prelude::*;
binary_layout!(my_layout, LittleEndian, {
field_one: u16,
another_field: [u8; 16],
something_else: u32,
tail: [u8],
});
fn func(storage_data: &mut [u8]) {
let mut view = my_layout::View::new(storage_data);
// read some data
let format_version_header: u16 = view.field_one().read();
// equivalent: let format_version_header = u16::from_le_bytes((&storage_data[0..2]).try_into().unwrap());
// write some data
view.something_else_mut().write(10);
// equivalent: data_slice[18..22].copy_from_slice(&10u32.to_le_bytes());
// access a data region
let tail: &[u8] = view.tail();
// equivalent: let tail: &[u8] = &data_slice[22..];
// and modify it
view.tail_mut()[..5].copy_from_slice(&[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
// equivalent: data_slice[18..22].copy_from_slice(&[1, 2, 3, 4, 5]);
}
Implementations§
source§impl<S, F: Field> FieldView<S, F>
impl<S, F: Field> FieldView<S, F>
sourcepub fn new(storage: S) -> Self
pub fn new(storage: S) -> Self
Create a new view for a field over a given storage.
You probably shouldn’t call this directly but should instead call
your_layout::View::new()
, which is generated by the
binary_layout! macro for you.

impl<S: AsRef<[u8]>, F: FieldReadExt> FieldView<S, F>
sourcepub fn read(&self) -> F::HighLevelType
pub fn read(&self) -> F::HighLevelType
Read the field from a given data region, assuming the defined layout, using the FieldView API.
§Example
use binary_layout::prelude::*;
binary_layout!(my_layout, LittleEndian, {
//... other fields ...
some_integer_field: i8
//... other fields ...
});
fn func(storage_data: &[u8]) {
let view = my_layout::View::new(storage_data);
let read: i8 = view.some_integer_field().read();
}

impl<S: AsMut<[u8]>, F: FieldWriteExt> FieldView<S, F>
sourcepub fn write(&mut self, v: F::HighLevelType)
pub fn write(&mut self, v: F::HighLevelType)
Write the field to a given data region, assuming the defined layout, using the FieldView API.
§Example
use binary_layout::prelude::*;
binary_layout!(my_layout, LittleEndian, {
//... other fields ...
some_integer_field: i8
//... other fields ...
});
fn func(storage_data: &mut [u8]) {

sourcepub fn try_read(&self) -> Result<F::HighLevelType, F::ReadError>
pub fn try_read(&self) -> Result<F::HighLevelType, F::ReadError>

§Example
use binary_layout::prelude::*;
use core::num::NonZeroI8;
