Crate lazy_char_iter

source ·
Expand description

This crate provides a .chars() method for Vec<u8> and &[u8] types, allowing you to iterate over the characters in a byte vector or slice without decoding each character preemptively.

In typical usage, you use the CharIterExt trait (implemented for Vec<u8> and &[u8]) and call the .chars() method on those types:

use lazy_char_iter::LazyCharIterExt;

let bread_str: &str = "brød";
let bread_bytes: &[u8] = bread_str.as_bytes();
let mut char_iter = bread_bytes.chars();
assert_eq!(char_iter.next(), Some(Ok('b')));

Structs

The resulting iterator returned when .chars() is called on a &[u8].

Enums

The errors that can occur when decoding UTF-8.

Traits

Iterate over the characters in a given type.
