Trait Format 

pub trait Format<T>: Sized {
    type SerError: Error + Send + Sync + 'static;
    type DeError: Error + Send + Sync + 'static;

    // Required methods
    fn to_bytes(value: &T) -> Result<Vec<u8>, Self::SerError>;
    fn from_bytes(data: Vec<u8>) -> Result<T, Self::DeError>;
}

Trait implementable by format providers.

By implementing this trait, a type becomes a marker for the specified format. That type can then be used for formatting (without instantiating an object of that type).

Required Associated Types

type SerError: Error + Send + Sync + 'static

type DeError: Error + Send + Sync + 'static

Required Methods

fn to_bytes(value: &T) -> Result<Vec<u8>, Self::SerError>

Convert data to bytes.

Errors

If the data failed to be encoded by the format, an error variant is returned.

fn from_bytes(data: Vec<u8>) -> Result<T, Self::DeError>

Convert bytes to data.

Errors

If the bytes failed to be decoded by the format, an error variant is returned.

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.
