Trait nardol::MetaDataType

pub trait MetaDataType<'a, M, C> where
    Self: Sized,
    M: MetaDataType<'a, M, C>,
    C: ContentType<'a, M, C>, {
    type SendContext: ContextType;
    type ReceiveContext: ContextType;

    fn send(
        self, 
        stream: &mut TcpStream, 
        context: Option<Self::SendContext>
    ) -> Result<Option<<C as ContentType<'a, M, C>>::SendContext>, Error>;
    fn receive(
        stream: &mut TcpStream, 
        context: &Option<Self::ReceiveContext>
    ) -> Result<(Self, Option<<C as ContentType<'a, M, C>>::ReceiveContext>), Error>;
}

Trait that needs to be implemented for type that will be used as metadata inside a message.

Required Associated Types

type SendContext: ContextType

Context provided to MetaDataType::send from TcpMessage::send.

type ReceiveContext: ContextType

Context provided to MetaDataType::receive.

Required Methods

fn send(
    self,
    stream: &mut TcpStream,
    context: Option<Self::SendContext>
) -> Result<Option<<C as ContentType<'a, M, C>>::SendContext>, Error>

Send method used to send metadata inside TcpMessage::send.

Defines how are metadata send.

Returns an Option of ContentType::SendContext on associated C that is passed into ContentType::send in TcpMessage::send. or an Error if not.

Arguments

• stream – TcpStream on which are data being sent.
• context – Optional context provided from TcpMessage::send which is MetaDataType::SendContext

fn receive(
    stream: &mut TcpStream,
    context: &Option<Self::ReceiveContext>
) -> Result<(Self, Option<<C as ContentType<'a, M, C>>::ReceiveContext>), Error>

Receive method used to receive metadata inside TcpMessage::receive.

Defines how metadata are received.

Returns a tuple of Self and an Option of ContentType::ReceiveContext on associated C that is passed into ContentType::receive in TcpMessage::send if successful or an Error if not.

Arguments

• stream – TcpStream on which are data being received.
• context – Optional context provided from TcpMessage::receive which is MetaDataType::ReceiveContext
