Crate mavlink_core

The MAVLink message set.

Message sets and the Message trait

Each message set has its own module with corresponding data types, including a MavMessage enum that represents all possible messages in that message set. The Message trait is used to represent messages in an abstract way, and each MavMessage enum implements this trait (for example, ardupilotmega::MavMessage). This is then monomorphized to the specific message set you are using in your application at compile-time via type parameters. If you expect ArduPilotMega-flavored messages, then you will need a MavConnection<ardupilotmega::MavMessage> and you will receive ardupilotmega::MavMessages from it.

Some message sets include others. For example, most message sets include the common message set. These included values are not differently represented in the MavMessage enum: a message in the common message set received on an ArduPilotMega connection will just be an ardupilotmega::MavMessage.

If you want to enable a given message set, you do not have to enable the feature for the message sets that it includes. For example, you can use the ardupilotmega feature without also using the uavionix, icarous, common features.
