A DNS header.

The header of a DNS packet follows the following structure:

      0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  0  1  2  3  4  5  6  7

Implementations

impl DnsHeader

pub fn serialize(&self, target: &mut Vec<u8, Global>)

Serialize a DnsHeader into a vector of bytes.

Usefult when you need to be able to apend the bytes to an existing Vec<u8, in any other case the From trait is implemented to be able to convert from an DnsHeader to an Vec<u8>.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for DnsHeader

fn clone(&self) -> DnsHeader

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for DnsHeader

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl TryFrom<&[u8]> for DnsHeader

type Error = ParseError

The type returned in the event of a conversion error.

fn try_from(
    bytes: &[u8]
) -> Result<DnsHeader, <DnsHeader as TryFrom<&[u8]>>::Error>

Performs the conversion.
