Macro include_bytes_plus::include_bytes

include_bytes!() { /* proc-macro */ }

Includes a file as a reference to a byte array.

This macro will yield an expression of type [u8; N] by default with content of file.

To reinterpret it as different type add as <type> where type can be: u8, u16, u32, u64 or u128.

NOTE:

Due to Span::source_file being unstable, the file is searched relative to crate root.

Usage:

use include_bytes_plus::include_bytes;

let bytes = include_bytes!("tests/include.in");
let bytes_u16 = include_bytes!("tests/include.in" as u16);
let bytes_u16_2 = include_bytes!("tests/include with whitespaces.in" as u16);
let bytes_u16_3 = include_bytes!("tests/include with whitespaces.in" as [u8; 48]);
let bytes_u16_4 = include_bytes!("tests/include with whitespaces.in" as [u16; 12]);

assert_eq!(bytes.len(), bytes_u16.len() * 2);
assert_eq!(bytes.len(), bytes_u16_2.len() * 2);
assert_eq!(bytes_u16_3.len(), 1);
assert_eq!(bytes_u16_3[0].len(), 48);
assert_eq!(bytes_u16_4.len(), 2);
assert_eq!(bytes_u16_4[0].len(), 12);
assert_eq!(bytes_u16_4[1].len(), 12);
