Structs

IncompleteBuffer

Returned when the buffer does not contains engouth bytes for decoding.

InsufficientBuffer

Returned when the encoded buffer is too small to hold the bytes format of the types.

Enums

DecodeBytesError

The error that can be returned when decoding bytes.

DecodeCharError

Error when decoding a character

DecodeUtf8BytesError

The error that can be returned when decoding utf8 bytes.

DecodeVarintError

Decoding varint error.

EncodeError

Encode varint error

Traits

Bounds

A trait bound that bounds Send, Sync, and 'static in possible combinations

ErrorBounds

A trait bound that bounds Debug, Display, Error, Send, Sync, and 'static in possible combinations

LengthDelimitedDecoder

A type can be encode to a buffer.

LengthDelimitedEncoder

A type can be encode to a buffer.

Varint

A trait for types that can be encoded as variable-length integers (varints).
