//!
//! Scroll is a library for efficiently and easily reading/writing types from byte arrays. All the builtin types are supported, e.g., `u32`, `i8`, etc., where the type is specified as a type parameter, or type inferred when possible. In addition, it supports zero-copy reading of string slices, or any other kind of slice.  The library can be used in a no_std context as well; the [Error](enum.Error.html) type only has the `IO` and `String` variants if the default features are used, and is `no_std` safe when compiled without default features.
//!
//! There are 3 traits for reading that you can import:
//!
//! 1. [Pread](trait.Pread.html), for reading (immutable) data at an offset;
//! 2. [Gread](trait.Gread.html), for reading data at an offset which automatically gets incremented by the size;
//! 3. [IOread](trait.IOread.html), for reading _simple_ data out of a `std::io::Read` based interface, e.g., a stream. (**Note**: only available when compiled with `std`)
//!
//! Each of these interfaces also have their corresponding writer versions as well, e.g., [Pwrite](trait.Pwrite.html), [Pwrite](trait.Pwrite.html), and [IOwrite](trait.IOwrite.html), respectively.
//!
//! Most familiar will likely be the `Pread` trait (inspired from the C function), which in our case takes an immutable reference to self, an immutable offset to read at, (and _optionally_ a parsing context, more on that later), and then returns the deserialized value.
//!
//! Because self is immutable, _**all** reads can be performed in parallel_ and hence are trivially parallelizable.
//!
//! For most usecases, you can use [scroll_derive](https://docs.rs/scroll_derive) to annotate your types with `derive(Pread, Pwrite, IOread, IOwrite, SizeWith)` to automatically add sensible derive defaults, and you should be ready to roll.  For more complex usescases, you can implement the conversion traits yourself, see the [context module](ctx/index.html) for more information.
//!
//! # Example
//!
//! A simple example demonstrates its flexibility:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use scroll::{ctx, Pread, LE};
//! let bytes: [u8; 4] = [0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef];
//!
//! // reads a u32 out of `b` with the endianness of the host machine, at offset 0, turbofish-style
//! let number: u32 = bytes.pread::<u32>(0).unwrap();
//! // ...or a byte, with type ascription on the binding.
//! let byte: u8 = bytes.pread(0).unwrap();
//!
//! //If the type is known another way by the compiler, say reading into a struct field, we can omit the turbofish, and type ascription altogether!
//!
//! // If we want, we can explicitly add a endianness to read with by calling `pread_with`.
//! // The following reads a u32 out of `b` with Big Endian byte order, at offset 0
//! let be_number: u32 = bytes.pread_with(0, scroll::BE).unwrap();
//! // or a u16 - specify the type either on the variable or with the beloved turbofish
//! let be_number2 = bytes.pread_with::<u16>(2, scroll::BE).unwrap();
//!
//! // Scroll has core friendly errors (no allocation). This will have the type `scroll::Error::BadOffset` because it tried to read beyond the bound
//! let byte: scroll::Result<i64> = bytes.pread(0);
//!
//! // Scroll is extensible: as long as the type implements `TryWithCtx`, then you can read your type out of the byte array!
//!
//! // We can parse out custom datatypes, or types with lifetimes
//! // if they implement the conversion trait `TryFromCtx`; here we parse a C-style \0 delimited &str (safely)
//! let hello: &[u8] = b"hello_world\0more words";
//! let hello_world: &str = hello.pread(0).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!("hello_world", hello_world);
//!
//! // ... and this parses the string if its space separated!
//! use scroll::ctx::*;
//! let spaces: &[u8] = b"hello world some junk";
//! let world: &str = spaces.pread_with(6, StrCtx::Delimiter(SPACE)).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!("world", world);
//! ```
//!
//! # `std::io` API
//!
//! Scroll can also read/write simple types from a `std::io::Read` or `std::io::Write` implementor. The  built-in numeric types are taken care of for you.  If you want to read a custom type, you need to implement the [FromCtx](trait.FromCtx.html) (_how_ to parse) and [SizeWith](ctx/trait.SizeWith.html) (_how_ big the parsed thing will be) traits.  You must compile with default features. For example:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::io::Cursor;
//! use scroll::IOread;
//! let bytes_ = [0x01,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00, 0xef,0xbe,0x00,0x00,];
//! let mut bytes = Cursor::new(bytes_);
//!
//! // this will bump the cursor's Seek
//! let foo = bytes.ioread::<usize>().unwrap();
//! // ..ditto
//! let bar = bytes.ioread::<u32>().unwrap();
//! ```
//!
//! Similarly, we can write to anything that implements `std::io::Write` quite naturally:
//!
//! ```rust
//! use scroll::{IOwrite, LE, BE};
//! use std::io::{Write, Cursor};
//!
//! let mut bytes = [0x0u8; 10];
//! let mut cursor = Cursor::new(&mut bytes[..]);
//! cursor.write_all(b"hello").unwrap();
//! cursor.iowrite_with(0xdeadbeef as u32, BE).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(cursor.into_inner(), [0x68, 0x65, 0x6c, 0x6c, 0x6f, 0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef, 0x0]);
//! ```
//!
//! # Advanced Uses
//!
//! Scroll is designed to be highly configurable - it allows you to implement various context (`Ctx`) sensitive traits, which then grants the implementor _automatic_ uses of the `Pread` and/or `Pwrite` traits.
//!
//! For example, suppose we have a datatype and we want to specify how to parse or serialize this datatype out of some arbitrary
//! byte buffer. In order to do this, we need to provide a [TryFromCtx](trait.TryFromCtx.html) impl for our datatype.
//! 
//! In particular, if we do this for the `[u8]` target, using the convention `(usize, YourCtx)`, you will automatically get access to
//! calling `pread_with::<YourDatatype>` on arrays of bytes.
//! 
//! ```rust
//! use scroll::{self, ctx, Pread, BE, Endian};
//! 
//! struct Data<'a> {
//!   name: &'a str,
//!   id: u32,
//! }
//! 
//! // note the lifetime specified here
//! impl<'a> ctx::TryFromCtx<'a, Endian> for Data<'a> {
//!   type Error = scroll::Error;
//!   type Size = usize;
//!   // and the lifetime annotation on `&'a [u8]` here
//!   fn try_from_ctx (src: &'a [u8], endian: Endian)
//!     -> Result<(Self, Self::Size), Self::Error> {
//!     let offset = &mut 0;
//!     let name = src.gread::<&str>(offset)?;
//!     let id = src.gread_with(offset, endian)?;
//!     Ok((Data { name: name, id: id }, *offset))
//!   }
//! }
//! 
//! let bytes = b"UserName\x00\x01\x02\x03\x04";
//! let data = bytes.pread_with::<Data>(0, BE).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(data.id, 0x01020304);
//! assert_eq!(data.name.to_string(), "UserName".to_string());
//! ```
//!
