Enum WireEncoding 

#[non_exhaustive]
pub enum WireEncoding {
    FlatBuffers,
}

The payload encoding a generated package’s face encodes and verifies over (design note D-11; ADR-0020 decision 1 names the three encodings).

It is a per-package build-time choice rather than a type parameter on the face: the alternative would put an E: Encoding on every descriptor, every provider trait and every caller, and a where bound per payload type on every impl, for a choice made once per generated package.

One variant today. ridl-backend-rust emits a Payload implementation for one encoding — the FlatBuffers codec of story E11.7 — so naming another here would emit a face over implementations that do not exist. repr(C) and proto3 join when E11.12 and E11.8 emit their codecs, which is what #[non_exhaustive] says to a caller that matches on this.

Variants (Non-exhaustive)

Non-exhaustive enums could have additional variants added in future. Therefore, when matching against variants of non-exhaustive enums, an extra wildcard arm must be added to account for any future variants.

FlatBuffers

The FlatBuffers codec of story E11.7, which generate emits into every package’s own output.
