1/// Iteration item for option values

3/// This is the trait of items produced by [`ReadableMessage::options()`].
4///
5/// An implementation needs to allow the user to get the value as a memory slice. This is trivial
6/// for messages that are stored in serialized form; there this can be a fat pointer.
7/// Implementations that store options semantically (eg. as a `struct Block { n: usize, m: bool,
8/// szx: u8 }`) will typically make their MessageOption large enough to contain serialized options,
9/// or heap-allocate for them.

115// It would be nice to have more type state in here (for headers, last option number and whether

119///
120/// This is the bare minimum a message type needs to provide to generic applications. It is up to
121/// the user to ensure this valid sequence of operations:
122///
123/// * Exactly one call to `set_code`
124/// * Any number of calls to `add_option`, with monotonically increasing option numbers
125/// * Zero or one call to `set_payload`
126///
127/// Steps that can reasonably fail at runtime are fallible -- for example, a payload to be set may
128/// simply not fit within the message size. Adding options in the wrong sequence is also an
129/// expected source, eg. when code paths are triggered that were not tested in that combination.
130///
131/// Other errors violating the call sequence, such as failure to call `set_code`, or adding an
132/// option after the payload has been set, may be implemented in a panic. (When occurring in a
133/// fallible operation, the implementation may also choose to report an error instead).
134///
135/// Failed operations may be retried (eg. with shorter values); the failed attempt must not have an
136/// effect on the message.
137///
138/// Implementations may tolerate erroneous call sequences as long as they can produce messages that
139/// are likely to match the caller's expectations -- no need to keep track of usage errors just to
140/// produce correct errors. Users may wrap messages in dedicated checkers for more strictness.

498/// Marker trait that relaxes [MinimalWritableMessage]'s sequence requirements.
499///
500/// This indicates that the sequence of calling [`set_code()`](MinimalWritableMessage::set_code),
501/// [`add_option()`](MinimalWritableMessage::add_option) and
502/// [`set_payload()`](MinimalWritableMessage::set_payload) is not fixed. The sequence of calls only
503/// has meaning in that later `set_code()` and `set_payload()` calls override earlier ones, and
504/// that `add_option()` on the same option number are stored in their sequence of addition.
505// FIXME: Look into whether there's any implementation where it'd make sense to only have some of
506// the relaxation but not all (eg. all options must be out, then comes the code).

508    // FIXME: Provide a more generic set_from_message that does not demand
509    // WithSortedOptions. It can even have just the same code.
