}Expand description
An asynchronous stream of bytes.
BufStream asynchronously yields values implementing Buf, i.e. byte
buffers.
Required Associated Types§
Required Methods§
Sourcefn poll(&mut self) -> Poll<Option<Self::Item>, Self::Error>
fn poll(&mut self) -> Poll<Option<Self::Item>, Self::Error>
Attempt to pull out the next buffer of this stream, registering the
current task for wakeup if the value is not yet available, and returning
None if the stream is exhausted.
§Return value
There are several possible return values, each indicating a distinct stream state:
-
Ok(Async::NotReady)means that this stream’s next value is not ready yet. Implementations will ensure that the current task will be notified when the next value may be ready. -
Ok(Async::Ready(Some(buf)))means that the stream has successfully produced a value,buf, and may produce further values on subsequentpollcalls. -
Ok(Async::Ready(None))means that the stream has terminated, andpollshould not be invoked again.
§Panics
Once a stream is finished, i.e. Ready(None) has been returned, further
calls to poll may result in a panic or other “bad behavior”.
Provided Methods§
Sourcefn size_hint(&self) -> SizeHint
fn size_hint(&self) -> SizeHint
Returns the bounds on the remaining length of the iterator.
§Implementation notes
It is not enforced that a BufStreaam yields the declared amount of
data. A buggy implementation may yield less than the lower bound or more
than the upper bound.
size_hint() is primarily intended to be used for optimizations such as
reserving space for the data, but must not be trusted to e.g. omit
bounds checks in unsafe code. An incorrect implemeentation of
size_hint() should not lead to memory safety violations.
That said, the implementation should provide a correct estimation, because otherwise it would be a violation of the trait’s protocol.
Sourcefn chain<T>(self, other: T) -> Chain<Self, T>
fn chain<T>(self, other: T) -> Chain<Self, T>
Takes two buf streams and creates a new buf stream over both in sequence.
chain() will return a new BufStream value which will first yield all
data from self then all data from other.
In other words, it links two buf streams together, in a chain.
Sourcefn collect<T>(self) -> Collect<Self, T>where
Self: Sized,
T: FromBufStream,
fn collect<T>(self) -> Collect<Self, T>where
Self: Sized,
T: FromBufStream,
Consumes all data from self, storing it in byte storage of type T.
