Shared PLC value types for rust-ethernet-ip
Documentation

rust-ethernet-ip-types

Shared PLC value types for the rust-ethernet-ip ecosystem.

This crate exposes the wire-neutral data model that the protocol, UDT, and client crates all agree on:

  • PlcValue — tagged enum covering every Allen-Bradley CIP scalar type (Bool, Sint, Int, Dint, Lint, Usint, Uint, Udint, Ulint, Real, Lreal, String, Udt)
  • UdtData — { symbol_id, data } envelope for Logix User-Defined Types
  • UdtCodec — trait used by the rust-ethernet-ip-udt crate to parse/serialize UDT byte buffers
  • TypeError — value-model error type

Who should use this crate

Most consumers want the top-level rust-ethernet-ip crate, which re-exports the user-facing items from this crate alongside the network client, FFI surface, and protocol codecs.

Depend on rust-ethernet-ip-types directly only if you are building an independent tooling layer (codec, transport, schema export, etc.) that needs the wire-neutral model without pulling in the full client.

Usage

use rust_ethernet_ip_types::PlcValue;

let v = PlcValue::Dint(1500);
assert_eq!(v.to_string(), "Dint(1500)");
