Struct PlaintextBlock 

pub struct PlaintextBlock { /* private fields */ }

An opaque handle to a single plaintext block (radix digit) in the IR graph.

A plaintext block is the cleartext counterpart of a CiphertextBlock: it represents one digit in the same radix-2^message_size decomposition, but carries only the message_size message bits — no carry or padding. Plaintext blocks are used as the right-hand operand in mixed ciphertext–plaintext arithmetic (e.g. Builder::block_add_plaintext).

This type cannot be constructed directly — it is always returned by Builder methods. Use make_value to create a test IopValue for Builder::eval.

Implementations

impl PlaintextBlock

pub fn spec(&self) -> PlaintextBlockSpec

Returns the block specification describing the message bit layout.

pub fn make_value(&self, val: EmulatedPlaintextBlockStorage) -> IopValue

Creates a compatible value to be used in evaluation.

The val argument is a raw message-only value. It is interpreted according to this block’s PlaintextBlockSpec.

Panics

Panics if val overflows the message bit width.

Trait Implementations

impl AsRef<PlaintextBlock> for PlaintextBlock

fn as_ref(&self) -> &PlaintextBlock

Converts this type into a shared reference of the (usually inferred) input type.

impl Clone for PlaintextBlock

fn clone(&self) -> PlaintextBlock

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for PlaintextBlock

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for PlaintextBlock

fn eq(&self, other: &PlaintextBlock) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
