Module capnp::serialize

source ·
Expand description

Reading and writing of messages using the standard stream framing, where each message is preceded by a segment table indicating the size of its segments.

Structs

Segments read from a buffer, useful for when you have the message in a buffer and don’t want the extra copy of read_message.
Owned memory containing a message’s segments sequentialized in a single contiguous buffer. The segments are guaranteed to be 8-byte aligned.
Helper object for constructing an OwnedSegments or a SliceSegments.
Segments read from a single flat slice of words.

Enums

Segments read from a buffer, useful for when you have the message in a buffer and don’t want the extra copy of read_message.

Constants

Functions

Returns the number of (8-byte) words required to serialize the message (including the segment table).
Reads a serialized message from a stream with the provided options.
Reads a serialized message (including a segment table) from a flat slice of bytes, without copying. The slice is allowed to extend beyond the end of the message. On success, updates slice to point to the remaining bytes beyond the end of the message.
Reads a serialized message (including a segment table) from a flat slice of bytes, without copying. The slice is allowed to extend beyond the end of the message. On success, updates slice to point to the remaining bytes beyond the end of the message.
Like read_message(), but returns None instead of an error if there are zero bytes left in read. This is useful for reading a stream containing an unknown number of messages – you call this function until it returns None.
Writes the provided message to write.
Like write_message(), but takes a ReaderSegments, allowing it to be used on message::Reader objects (via into_segments()).
Like write_message_to_words(), but takes a ReaderSegments, allowing it to be used on message::Reader objects (via into_segments()).
Constructs a flat vector containing the entire message, including a segment header.
