hopper_runtime/option_byte.rs
1//! Zero-copy, tag-validated optional values for instruction args.
2//!
3//! Rust's `Option<T>` has niche-optimizing layout rules that make it
4//! unsafe to pointer-cast from raw instruction bytes. `Option<u8>` is
5//! two bytes with an undefined tag range; `Option<&T>` uses null for
6//! `None`. Neither is a layout the caller controls.
7//!
8//! `OptionByte<T>` is the Hopper replacement for args. Layout:
9//!
10//! ```text
11//! #[repr(C)]
12//! { tag: u8, value: T }
13//! ```
14//!
15//! `tag == 0` is `None`, `tag == 1` is `Some`. Any other tag byte is
16//! a protocol error and [`OptionByte::get`] surfaces it as
17//! `ProgramError::InvalidInstructionData`.
18//!
19//! ## Usage
20//!
21//! ```ignore
22//! #[hopper::args]
23//! #[repr(C)]
24//! pub struct SwapArgs {
25//! pub amount: u64,
26//! pub referrer: OptionByte<[u8; 32]>,
27//! pub slippage_bps: u16,
28//! }
29//!
30//! fn handler(ctx: Context<Swap>, args: &SwapArgs) -> ProgramResult {
31//! if let Some(referrer) = args.referrer.get()? {
32//! // referrer is &[u8; 32]
33//! }
34//! Ok(())
35//! }
36//! ```
