Expand description

A trait for anything that can read aligned values from an input stream

Required Methods

source

fn read<N: Numeric>(&mut self) -> Result<N, Error>

Reads whole numeric value from stream

Errors

Passes along any I/O error from the underlying stream.

Examples

use std::io::{Read, Cursor};
use bitstream_io::{BigEndian, ByteReader, ByteRead};
let data = [0b00000000, 0b11111111];
let mut reader = ByteReader::endian(Cursor::new(&data), BigEndian);
assert_eq!(reader.read::<u16>().unwrap(), 0b0000000011111111);

use std::io::{Read, Cursor};
use bitstream_io::{LittleEndian, ByteReader, ByteRead};
let data = [0b00000000, 0b11111111];
let mut reader = ByteReader::endian(Cursor::new(&data), LittleEndian);
assert_eq!(reader.read::<u16>().unwrap(), 0b1111111100000000);
