  • Macro that creates a record that can be passed to gluon
  • Creates a pattern which matches on marshalled gluon records
  • Creates a Rust type compatible with the type of record_no_decl!

Structs

Enums

  • Error type wrapping all possible errors that can be generated from gluon

Constants

Traits
