Struct Key

pub struct Key { /* private fields */ }

Base key type that provides secure memory handling

Implementations

impl Key

pub fn new(bytes: &[u8]) -> Self

pub fn new_zeros(len: usize) -> Self

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Trait Implementations

impl AsMut<[u8]> for Key

fn as_mut(&mut self) -> &mut [u8]

Converts this type into a mutable reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl AsRef<[u8]> for Key

fn as_ref(&self) -> &[u8]

Converts this type into a shared reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl Clone for Key

fn clone(&self) -> Key

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Drop for Key

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

impl SerializeSecret for Key

fn from_bytes(bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<Self>

Creates an object from a byte slice. Input should be zeroized after use.

fn to_bytes_zeroizing(&self) -> Zeroizing<Vec<u8>>

Converts the object to a byte vector that is zeroized on drop.

impl Zeroize for Key

fn zeroize(&mut self)

Zero out this object from memory using Rust intrinsics which ensure the zeroization operation is not “optimized away” by the compiler.
