Trait byte_slice_cast::FromByteSlice [] [src]

pub unsafe trait FromByteSlice where
    Self: Sized
{ fn from_byte_slice<'a>(_: &'a [u8]) -> Result<&'a [Self], Error>;
fn from_mut_byte_slice<'a>(_: &'a mut [u8]) -> Result<&'a mut [Self], Error>; }

Trait for converting from a byte slice to a slice of another fundamental, built-in numeric type. Usually using the AsSliceOf trait is more convenient.

Example

use byte_slice_cast::*;

let slice = [1u8, 2u8, 3u8, 4u8, 5u8, 6u8];
let converted_slice = <u16 as FromByteSlice>::from_byte_slice(&slice).unwrap();

if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
    assert_eq!(converted_slice, &[0x0102, 0x0304, 0x0506]);
} else {
    assert_eq!(converted_slice, &[0x0201, 0x0403, 0x0605]);
}
