Struct io::ByteReaderWrapper

source ·
pub struct ByteReaderWrapper<R: BlockReader>(_);
Expand description

A wrapper struct that implements a byte-wise reader atop a block-based reader.

This ideally should be realized via automatic trait implementations, in which all types that implement BlockReader also implement ByteReader, but we can’t do that because Rust currently does not support specialization.

Example

Use the From implementation around a BlockReader instance, such as:

// Assume `storage_dev` implements `BlockReader`
let bytes_read = ByteReaderWrapper::from(storage_dev).read_at(...);

Trait Implementations§

Returns the size in bytes of a single block (i.e., sector), the minimum granularity of I/O transfers.
Reads blocks of data from this reader into the given buffer. Read more
Reads bytes of data from this reader into the given buffer. Read more
Converts to this type from the input type.
Returns the length (size in bytes) of this I/O stream or device.

Converts to this type from the input type.

Returns the argument unchanged.

Calls U::from(self).

That is, this conversion is whatever the implementation of From<T> for U chooses to do.
