portable-io

Traits, helpers, and type definitions for core I/O functionality. A subset from Rust std::io functionality supported for no-std.

MSRV:

• stable: 1.81.0
• nightly: nightly-2022-08-24

NOTE: unstable configuration --cfg portable_io_unstable_all in Rust flags is required for Rust nightly pre-2024-06-09 to enable error_in_core feature directive (stabilized in June 2024).

Features

• alloc (enabled by default) - mandatory feature - for alloc-related functionality

CFG options

• portable_io_unstable_all - enable all unstable options:
  • impl Write for Vec - uses Rust unstable allocator_api feature
  • size hint optimization for Read iterator - uses Rust unstable min_specialization feature

To enable: use --cfg portable_io_unstable_all in Rust flags, set RUSTFLAGS env variable when running cargo build or cargo test for example.

major TODO items

• Resolve doc warnings
• Include updates from newer versions of upstream Rust library code
• Include & adapt some more documentation from upstream Rust library code
• Resolve other TODO items in this code
