frame_decoder.rs

//! Framedecoder is the main low-level struct users interact with to decode zstd frames
//!
//! Zstandard compressed data is made of one or more frames. Each frame is independent and can be
//! decompressed independently of other frames. This module contains structures
//! and utilities that can be used to decode a frame.

    ///   there is no following block to resume from, so an incremental walk
    ///   stops on `frame_finished` rather than on a `None` snapshot.
