Struct rustls_ffi::rslice::rustls_str

#[repr(C)]
pub struct rustls_str<'a> {
    pub data: *const c_char,
    pub len: size_t,
    // some fields omitted
}

A read-only view on a Rust &str. The contents are guaranteed to be valid UTF-8. As an additional guarantee on top of Rust’s normal UTF-8 guarantee, a rustls_str is guaranteed not to contain internal NUL bytes, so it is safe to interpolate into a C string or compare using strncmp. Keep in mind that it is not NUL-terminated.

The memory exposed is available as specified by the function using this in its signature. For instance, when this is a parameter to a callback, the lifetime will usually be the duration of the callback. Functions that receive one of these must not dereference the data pointer beyond the allowed lifetime.

Fields

data: *const c_char

len: size_t
