pub trait Serialize {
    type Bytes;

    fn serialize(&self) -> Self::Bytes;
    fn serialize_into(&self, bytes: &mut Vec<u8, Global>);
}
Expand description

A type implementing this trait can be serialized into X11 raw bytes.

Required Associated Types

The value returned by serialize.

This should be Vec<u8> in most cases. However, arrays like [u8; 4] should also be allowed and thus this is an associated type.

If generic associated types were available, implementing AsRef<[u8]> would be required.

Required Methods

Serialize this value into X11 raw bytes.

Serialize this value into X11 raw bytes, appending the result into bytes.

When calling this method, the given vector must satisfy assert_eq!(bytes.len() % 4, 0);. In words: Its length must be a multiple of four.
