Struct bencode_decoder::BString

pub struct BString { /* fields omitted */ }

Struct for representing string (byte sequence) in Bencode format.

Methods

impl BString

fn new(data: &[u8]) -> BString

Simple constructor from array of bytes.

Trait Implementations

impl Eq for BString

impl PartialEq for BString

fn eq(&self, __arg_0: &BString) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, __arg_0: &BString) -> bool

This method tests for !=.

impl Debug for BString

fn fmt(&self, __arg_0: &mut Formatter) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl BElement<BString> for BString

fn decode(encoded: &[u8]) -> Result<(usize, BString), &'static str>

Decodes BString from array of bytes.

Returns Ok((position of last used byte in passed array, parsed BString)) or Err if couldn't parse BString correctly.

Examples

BString must have following structure: :, where data - sequence of bytes with corresponding length.

use bencode_decoder::BElement;
use bencode_decoder::BString;

assert_eq!((4, BString::new("abc".as_bytes())), 
           BString::decode("3:abc".as_bytes()).ok().expect("invalid"));
