Module heph_rt::bytes

Traits to work with bytes.

This module contains two traits:

• Bytes to work a single buffer, e.g. Vec<u8>, and
• BytesVectored to work with multiple buffers and using vectored I/O, e.g. Vec<Vec<u8>>.

The basic design of both traits is the same and is fairly simple. It’s split into two methods. Usage starts with a call to as_bytes/as_bufs, which returns a slice to unitialised bytes. The caller should then fill that slice with valid bytes, e.g. by receiving bytes from a socket. Once the slice is (partially) filled the caller should call update_length/update_lengths, which updates the length of the buffer.

Structs

LimitedBytes

Wrapper to limit the number of bytes B can use.

MaybeUninitSlice

A version of IoSliceMut that allows the buffer to be uninitialised.

Traits

Bytes

Trait to make easier to work with uninitialised buffers.

BytesVectored
