wire-codec 1.1.0

//! Consistent Overhead Byte Stuffing (COBS).
//!
//! COBS rewrites a payload so that it contains no `0x00` bytes, at a cost of
//! at most one byte per 254 bytes of input (plus one). A zero byte can then
//! mark frame boundaries unambiguously, which makes COBS a common choice for
//! serial links, USB CDC, and radio packets where a receiver must be able to
//! resynchronise after noise. It is the framing used by `postcard`.
//!
//! This module only does the byte stuffing. Combine it with
//! [`Delimited`][`crate::framing::Delimited`] on a `[0x00]` delimiter to cut
//! the stream into frames:
//!
//! ```
//! use wire_codec::framing::{Delimited, Framer};
//! use wire_codec::{cobs, WriteBuf};
//!
//! // Sender: stuff the payload, then terminate it with 0x00.
//! let payload = [0x11, 0x00, 0x22, 0x00];
//! let mut wire = [0u8; 16];
//! let mut out = WriteBuf::new(&mut wire);
//! cobs::encode(&payload, &mut out).unwrap();
//! out.write_u8(0x00).unwrap();
//! let n = out.position();
//! assert_eq!(&wire[..n], &[0x02, 0x11, 0x02, 0x22, 0x01, 0x00]);
//!
//! // Receiver: split on 0x00, then unstuff in place.
//! let framer = Delimited::bounded(&[0x00]).unwrap();
//! let frame = framer.next_frame(&wire[..n]).unwrap().unwrap();
//! let mut block = [0u8; 16];
//! let block = &mut block[..frame.payload().len()];
//! block.copy_from_slice(frame.payload());
//! let len = cobs::decode_in_place(block).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(&block[..len], &payload);
//! ```
//!
//! All functions are allocation-free and atomic: on error nothing is written
//! to the output cursor.
