Crate bitlab [−] [src]
Extracting a range of bits from binary data
Objective:
To help developing applications, which extract bit level data from a binary source such as spacecraft telemetry
Status
Experimental
Version
0.1.1
Examples
Example 1:
To extract 3 bits starting at bit index 5 within a byte (0xFF) and interpret them as an unsigned integer
use bitlab::*; let a = 0xFFu8; let b = a.get_u8(5, 3).unwrap(); //assert_eq!(b, 7);
Example 2:
The data source is a vector of u8 types. We want to go to byte offset 1, bit offset 7 and starting from there extract 3 bits as an u16
let v: Vec<u8> = vec!{ 0x48, 0x61, 0x6C, 0x6C, 0x6F }; // = "Hallo" let bar = bitlab::u16(&v, 1, 7, 3); // relevant bytes = 0x616C = 0b0110000 --> 101 <-- 101100 assert_eq!(bar.unwrap(), 5);

Traits
ExtractBitsFromIntegralTypes |
Defines a number of functions, which extract a range of bits from primitive numeric types (u8, u16, u32 and u64) and return the result as one of the following types (u8, u16, u32 and u64, i8, i16, i32 and i64) E.g. the get_u8(5,3) function extracts the bits 5,6 and 7 of the variable a and returns the result as a u8 variable |
