Expand description

Trait implemented by values which can be converted to and from raw bits.

Required Associated Types

The error type returned by Self::try_from_bits when an invalid bit pattern is encountered.

If all bit patterns possible in Self::BITS bits are valid bit patterns for a Self-typed value, this should generally be core::convert::Infallible.

Required Associated Constants

The number of bits required to represent a value of this type.

Required Methods

Attempt to convert bits into a value of this type.

Returns
  • Ok(Self) if bits contained a valid bit pattern for a value of this type.
  • Err(Self::Error) if bits is an invalid bit pattern for a value of this type.

Convert self into a raw bit representation.

In general, this will be a low-cost conversion (e.g., for enums, this is generally an as cast).
