Trait AsULE

trait AsULE: Copy

A trait for any type that has a 1:1 mapping with an unaligned little-endian (ULE) type.

If you need to implement this trait, consider using #[make_ule] instead.

Associated Types

type ULE: TraitBound { trait_: Path { path: "ULE", id: Id(293), args: None }, generic_params: [], modifier: None }

The ULE type corresponding to Self.

Types having infallible conversions from all bit values (Plain Old Data) can use RawBytesULE with the desired width; for example, u32 uses RawBytesULE<4>.

Types that are not well-defined for all bit values should implement a custom ULE.

Required Methods

fn to_unaligned(self: Self) -> <Self as >::ULE

Converts from Self to Self::ULE.

This function may involve byte order swapping (native-endian to little-endian).

For best performance, mark your implementation of this function #[inline].

fn from_unaligned(unaligned: <Self as >::ULE) -> Self

Converts from Self::ULE to Self.

This function may involve byte order swapping (little-endian to native-endian).

For best performance, mark your implementation of this function #[inline].

Safety

This function is infallible because bit validation should have occurred when Self::ULE was first constructed. An implementation may therefore involve an unsafe{} block, like from_bytes_unchecked().
