Trait Open

pub trait Open<B: Backend>: ReceiveHeader<B> {
    // Required method
    fn build(self, settings: B::Settings) -> Result<B, B::Err>;
}

Trait used to open a Backend.

Should contain options used to open a specific backend. When a container is opened, this trait is used to open the related backend.

Any type that implements this Open trait must also implement the ReceiveHeader trait because the header of the container is read here.

Finally, the container calls Open::build() to create an instance of the Backend. The settings of the backend (extracted from the header) are passed to the Open::build() method and can be used to configure the Backend instance. The resulting backend instance should be able to handle all operations on it. The Open::build() method should validate all its settings before returning the backend instance!

Required Methods

fn build(self, settings: B::Settings) -> Result<B, B::Err>

Create an instance of the Backend.

The container calls Create::build() to create an instance of the Backend. The settings of the backend (extracted from the header) are passed to the method and can be used to configure the Backend. The resulting backend instance should be able to handle all operations on it. The method should validate all its settings before returning the backend instance!
