Trait PartitionTableReadExt 

pub trait PartitionTableReadExt: Sized {
    // Required method
    fn read_from<R: Read + Seek>(
        reader: &mut R,
        block_size: u32,
    ) -> Result<Self>;
}

Available on crate features alloc and read only.

Extension trait for reading PartitionTable from I/O sources.

Required Methods

fn read_from<R: Read + Seek>(reader: &mut R, block_size: u32) -> Result<Self>

Detects and reads a partition scheme from a disk image.

This method:

1. Reads the MBR at LBA 0
2. Detects if it’s a protective MBR (GPT) or hybrid MBR
3. If protective/hybrid, reads the GPT structure
4. Returns the appropriate partition scheme

Arguments

• reader - The reader to read from (should be positioned at LBA 0)
• block_size - The logical block size in bytes (typically 512)

Errors

Returns an error if reading fails or if the partition structure is invalid.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
