rust-bitfield

This crate provides macros to generate bitfield-like struct.

This a complete rewrite of the bitfield crate. You can find the previous version in the rust-bitfield-legacy repository. This version works on the stable version of rustc and use a different syntax with different possibility.

Example

An IPv4 header could be described like that:

bitfield!{
    struct IpV4Header(MSB0 [u8]);
    u32;
    get_version, _: 3, 0;
    get_ihl, _: 7, 4;
    get_dscp, _: 13, 8;
    get_ecn, _: 15, 14;
    get_total_length, _: 31, 16;
    get_identification, _: 47, 31;
    get_df, _: 49;
    get_mf, _: 50;
    get_fragment_offset, _: 63, 51;
    get_time_to_live, _: 71, 64;
    get_protocol, _: 79, 72;
    get_header_checksum, _: 95, 79;
    get_source_address, _: 127, 96;
    get_destination_address, _: 159, 128;
}

In this example, all the fields are read-only, the _ as setter name signals to skip the setter method. The range at the end (e.g. 3, 0) defines the bit range where the information is encoded.
