Trait InstructionSet 

pub trait InstructionSet: Sized {
    // Required methods
    fn decode(mem: &[u8]) -> Result<(usize, Self), DecodeError>;
    fn encode(&self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize, EncodeError>;
}

This trait defines an instruction set. It provides functionality to decode from or encode to opcodes. It can be autoderived for suitable enums by a procedual macro provided by this crate.

Required Methods

fn decode(mem: &[u8]) -> Result<(usize, Self), DecodeError>

Used to decode an instruction (i.e. Self) from a byte buffer. The buffer needs to be provided as a &[u8] and the function returns a result containing either a tuple containing the number of bytes written and the resulting instruction or an DecodeError.

fn encode(&self, buf: &mut [u8]) -> Result<usize, EncodeError>

Used to encode instructions into a byte buffer. The buffer needs to be provided as a &mut [u8]. The function returns a result containing either the number of bytes read or an EncodeError

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
