Trait ReceiveHeader

pub trait ReceiveHeader<B: Backend> {
    // Required method
    fn get_header_bytes(&mut self, bytes: &mut [u8; 512]) -> Result<(), B::Err>;
}
Expand description

Trait used to receive the header of a container.

The container uses the ReceiveHeader::get_header_bytes() method to ask the backend for the header bytes. The container does not know where the backend stores the header, that’s why such a method is used. Not more than HEADER_MAX_SIZE bytes can be stored in the header.

Required Methods§

Source

fn get_header_bytes(&mut self, bytes: &mut [u8; 512]) -> Result<(), B::Err>

Receives the binary header data from the backend.

The container uses this method to ask the backend for the header bytes. The container does not know where the backend stores the header, that’s why such a method is used. Not more than HEADER_MAX_SIZE bytes can be stored in the header.

The method should put the data into the bytes slice.
