Struct fourleaf::stream::Field

pub struct Field<'d, R: 'd> {
    pub tag: u8,
    pub pos: u64,
    pub depth: u64,
    pub value: Value<'d, R>,
}

A field decoded from a fourleaf stream.

Fields

tag: u8

The tag of this field, in the range 1..63, inclusive.

pos: u64

The offset of this field in the stream. This specifically points to the byte containing the tag.

depth: u64

The struct nesting depth of this field in the stream. Always at least 1. See also Stream::struct_depth().

Note that even for Structs and Enums, this is the depth of the field itself, and not its contents, whereas immediately after reading such a field the value of Stream::struct_depth() will reflect the depth of the contents.

value: Value<'d, R>

The value of this field.

Methods

impl<'d, R: 'd> Field<'d, R>

fn skip(self) -> Result<()> where
    R: Read, 

Causes this field and all its children to be skipped.

The actual IO of skipping this field does not necessarily happen within this call, and may be deferred to the next call to next_field or anything else that results in committing the Stream.

impl<'d, R: Debug + 'd> Debug for Field<'d, R>

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.
