DataView

The Pod trait marks types whose values can be safely transmuted between byte arrays of the same size.

The DataView type defines read and write data APIs to an underlying byte buffer.

Library

This library is available on crates.io.

Documentation can be found on docs.rs.

In your Cargo.toml, put

text [dependencies] dataview = "~1.0"

Examples

```rust

[derive(dataview::Pod)]

[repr(C)]

struct MyType { field: i32, }

// Construct a zero initialized instance let mut inst: MyType = dataview::zeroed(); assert_eq!(inst.field, 0);

// Use DataView to access the instance let view = dataview::DataView::frommut(&mut inst); view.write(2, &255u8);

// Create a byte view over the instance assert_eq!(dataview::bytes(&inst), &[0, 0, 255, 0]); ```
