Module serialize 

Helpers for data (de-)serialization.

Re-exports

pub use crate::FromBytes;

pub use crate::ToBytes;

Structs

EmptyFlags

Flags to be encoded into the serialization.

Enums

Compress

EdwardsFlags

Flags to be encoded into the serialization. The default flags (empty) should not change the binary representation.

SWFlags

Flags to be encoded into the serialization. The default flags (empty) should not change the binary representation.

SerializationError

Traits

CanonicalDeserialize

Deserializer in little endian format. This trait can be derived if all fields of a struct implement CanonicalDeserialize and the derive feature is enabled.

CanonicalDeserializeWithFlags

Deserializer in little endian format allowing flags to be encoded.

CanonicalSerialize

Serializer in little endian format. This trait can be derived if all fields of a struct implement CanonicalSerialize and the derive feature is enabled.

CanonicalSerializeWithFlags

Serializer in little endian format allowing to encode flags.

DeserializeExt

A helper trait used to simplify value extraction.

Flags

Represents metadata to be appended to an object’s serialization. For example, when serializing elliptic curve points, one can use a Flag to represent whether the serialization is the point at infinity, or whether the y coordinate is positive or not. These bits will be appended to the end of the point’s serialization, or included in a new byte, depending on space available.

Read

The Read trait allows for reading bytes from a source.

Valid

Write

A trait for objects which are byte-oriented sinks.

Functions

deserialize_vec_without_len

Deserialize a Vector’s elements without deserializing the Vector’s length If you want to deserialize the full Vector, use CanonicalDeserialize for Vec<T>

number_of_bits_and_bytes

Return the number of (byte-aligned) bits and bytes required to represent the given number of bits.

number_of_bits_to_number_of_bytes

Return the number of bytes required to represent the given number of bits.

serialize_vec_without_len

Serialize a Vector’s elements without serializing the Vector’s length If you want to serialize the full Vector, use CanonicalSerialize for Vec<T>

serialized_vec_size_without_len

Serialize a Vector’s element sizes without serializing the Vector’s length If you want to serialize the full Vector, use CanonicalSerialize for Vec<T>
