Struct protocol::logic::Aligned[][src]

pub struct Aligned<T, ToSizeOfType> where
    T: Parcel,
    ToSizeOfType: Sized
{ pub value: T, // some fields omitted }
Expand description

A value that is aligned to a specified number of bytes.

When bytes are written, they are zero-padding at the end until the total size is the smallest multiple of the size of ToSizeOfType.

When an Aligned type is read, a value of the inner T is first read, and then the minimum number of zero bytes in order to maintain alignment are read and ignored.

Type parameters:

  • T - The Parcel type that is to be transmitted
  • ToSizeOfType The transmitted bytes will be aligned to a multiple of size_of::<ToSizeOfType>(). For example, if ToSizeOfType = u32, then the written bytes will be aligned to a multiple of 4 bytes.

Examples:

extern crate protocol;
#[macro_use] extern crate protocol_derive;
use protocol::Parcel;

/// An example packet with a length prefix disjoint
/// from its data, with the data also
#[derive(Protocol, Clone, Debug, PartialEq)]
struct Packet {
    /// The length of the 'reason' string.
    pub reason_length: u8,
    /// The version number of the protocol.
    pub version_number: (u32, u32),
    #[protocol(length_prefix(bytes(reason_length)))]
    pub reason: protocol::logic::Aligned<String, u64>,

}

let raw_bytes = Packet {
    reason_length: 12,
    version_number: (11, 0xdeadbeef),
    reason: "hello world!".to_owned().into(),
}.raw_bytes(&protocol::Settings::default()).unwrap();

assert_eq!(&[
    12, // reason length
    0, 0, 0, 11, 0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef, // version number
    // the string "hello world".
    b'h', b'e', b'l', b'l', b'o', b' ', b'w', b'o', b'r', b'l', b'd', b'!',
    0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, // padding bytes to align to string to 16 bytes.
    ], &raw_bytes[..]);
