Trait zerovec::ule::AsVarULE

pub trait AsVarULE {
    type VarULE: VarULE + ?Sized;
    fn as_unaligned(&self) -> &Self::VarULE;
    fn from_unaligned(unaligned: &Self::VarULE) -> Self;
}

A trait for any type that has a 1:1 mapping with an variable-width unaligned little-endian (VarULE) type.

One such type is String, which can be handled as an str, which has no alignment or endianness requirements.

Associated Types

type VarULE: VarULE + ?Sized

The VarULE type corresponding to Self.

Required methods

fn as_unaligned(&self) -> &Self::VarULE

Converts from &Self to Self::ULE.

This function will almost always be a Deref or similar.

For best performance, mark your implementation of this function #[inline].

fn from_unaligned(unaligned: &Self::VarULE) -> Self

Converts from &Self::ULE to an owned Self.

This function may involve allocation.

For best performance, mark your implementation of this function #[inline].

Safety

This function is infallible because bit validation should have occured when Self::ULE was first constructed. An implementation may therefore involve an unsafe{} block, like from_bytes_unchecked().
