Struct bit_manager::BitReader

pub struct BitReader<T: Read> { /* fields omitted */ }

A wrapper for any type implementing io::Read that allows the reading of individual bits

Methods

impl<T: Read> BitReader<T>

fn new(reader: T) -> BitReader<T>

Creates a new bit reader with the given reader. Uses Precision::Byte by default.

fn new_with_precision(reader: T, precision: Precision) -> BitReader<T>

Creates a new bit reader with the given reader and precision.

fn read_bit(&mut self) -> Result<bool>

Reads a single bit.

fn read_bits(&mut self, buffer: &mut [bool]) -> Result<usize>

Reads as many bits as possible into a buffer. Returns the number of bits read.

fn read_byte(&mut self) -> Result<u8>

Reads a single byte.

fn read_bytes(&mut self, buffer: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize>

Reads as many bytes as possible into a buffer. Returns the number of bytes read.
