Crate netio [−] [src]

Alternative implementation of many functions found in std::io, but suitable for blocking IO over networks.

The main reason for this crate is the handling of ErrorKind::Interrupted in std::io. Except for std::io::Read::read and std::io::Write::write, almost all functions will ignore interrupts and just retry.

This crate provides alternative implementations using a similar API but allow for interrupts whithout losing any content.

Most functions are based on buffered readers instead of plain readers to ensure that no content is lost on retry.

Reexports

pub extern crate buf_redux;

Bytes	An iterator over `u8` values of a reader.
Chain	Adapter to chain together two readers.
Collect	A reader adapter over an iterator of readers
Compat
Error	The error type for I/O operations of the `Read`, `Write`, `Seek`, and associated traits.
Repeat	An adapter that restarts from the beginning after EOF is reached.
Retry	An adapter that retries reading/writing operations of the underlying reader or writer.
Split	An iterator over the contents of an instance of `BufRead` split on a particular byte.
Take	Adapter which limits the bytes read from / written to an underlying reader / writer.
Utf8Reader

A list specifying general categories of I/O error.

BufRead	Alternative to `std::io::BufRead`
BufReadGrow	A `BufReadGrow` is a `BufRead`er that has the ability to read additional data even if the buffer is not empty.
IoExt
Read	Alternative to `std::io::Read`
Stream	Base trait for generic stream operations
Write	Alternative to `std::io::Write`

copy	Copies the entire content of a buffered reader into a writer.
copy_until	Copies the content of a buffered reader into a writer until a delimiter is reached.

BufReader	Alternative to `std::io::BufReader`
Result	A specialized `Result` type for I/O operations.
