Enum ErrorKind

pub enum ErrorKind {
    Invalid(&'static str),
    Malformed(&'static str),
}

The type of error that occurred while parsing.

As a library consumer, detailed errors about what specific part of the MIDI spec was violated are not very useful. For this reason, errors are broadly categorized into 2 classes, and specific error info is provided as a non-normative string literal.

Variants

Invalid(&'static str)

Fatal errors while reading the file. It is likely that the file is not a MIDI file or is severely corrupted.

This error cannot be ignored, as there is not enough data to continue parsing. No information about the file could be rescued.

Malformed(&'static str)

Non-fatal error, but the file is clearly corrupted.

This kind of error is not emitted by default, only if the strict crate feature is enabled.

Ignoring these errors (if the strict feature is disabled) can cause whole tracks to be dropped.
