//! Traits used by the user-defined decoders and encoders.
//! These are used with [`crate::framed::FramedRead`] and [`crate::framed::FramedWrite`]
use BytesMut;
use io;
/// The `Decoder` trait.
/// Objects that implement this trait take a `BytesMut` and return
/// an item whose type is defined as the associated type `Item`.
///
/// It is important that implementers deplete bytes from `src` when
/// they are used to form the returned `item`. This can be done
/// by using the `split*` methods and the `get*` and `put*` methods
/// which become available when you import the [`Buf`] and
/// [`BufMut`] traits.
///
/// There are three possibilities to return from this method:
/// - `Ok(Some(Item))` - in which case decoding is complete and the
/// user defined `item` is returned.
/// - `Ok(None)`- there is not enough data in `src` to decode the
/// message. When this is returned `read` is called again on the
/// underlying `Read` object.
/// - `Err()` - An error has occurred. This will close the underlying
/// `Read` object. If you want to indicate a protocol error it is better
/// to use the user defined `Item` to do this.
///

///
/// The `Encoder` trait.
/// Objects that implement this trait take a user-defined `Item` and
/// insert into the provided `BytesMut`.
