Trait OctetsInto

pub trait OctetsInto<Target>: Sized {
    type Error: Into<ShortBuf>;

    // Required method
    fn try_octets_into(self) -> Result<Target, Self::Error>;

    // Provided method
    fn octets_into(self) -> Target
       where Self::Error: Into<Infallible> { ... }
}

Convert a type from one octets type to another.

This trait allows trading in a value of a type that is generic over an octets sequence for an identical value using a different type of octets sequence.

This is different from just Into in that the conversion may fail if the source sequence is longer than the space available for the target type.

This trait has a blanket implementation for all pairs of types where OctetsFrom has been implemented.

Required Associated Types

type Error: Into<ShortBuf>

Required Methods

fn try_octets_into(self) -> Result<Target, Self::Error>

Performs the conversion.

Provided Methods

fn octets_into(self) -> Target

where Self::Error: Into<Infallible>,

Performs an infallible conversion.

Object Safety

This trait is not object safe.
