1//! # dial9-trace-format
2//!
3//! A compact binary trace format for recording timestamped events with
4//! schema-driven encoding. Events are described by schemas (registered at
5//! write time) and encoded with delta-compressed timestamps, LEB128 varints,
6//! and an interned string pool.
7//!
8//! ## Crate layout
9//!
10//! - [`encoder`] — high-level [`Encoder`](encoder::Encoder) for writing traces
11//! - [`decoder`] — streaming [`Decoder`](decoder::Decoder) for reading traces
12//! - [`codec`]   — wire-format types ([`WireTypeId`](codec::WireTypeId),
13//!   [`PoolEntry`](codec::PoolEntry)) that appear in decoded frames
14//! - [`schema`]  — [`SchemaEntry`] and
15//!   [`FieldDef`] describing event layouts
16//! - [`types`]   — field value types, the [`TraceField`]
17//!   trait, and the [`EventEncoder`] used by derived code
