pub fn decode_to_array<T: AsRef<[u8]>, const N: usize>(
input: T,
) -> Result<[u8; N], FromHexError>
Expand description
Decode a hex string into a fixed-length byte-array.
Both, upper and lower case characters are valid in the input string and can
even be mixed (e.g. f9b4ca
, F9B4CA
and f9B4Ca
are all valid strings).
Strips the 0x
prefix if present.
§Errors
This function returns an error if the input is not an even number of
characters long or contains invalid hex characters, or if the input is not
exactly N / 2
bytes long.
§Example
let bytes = const_hex::decode_to_array(b"6b697769").unwrap();
assert_eq!(&bytes, b"kiwi");
let bytes = const_hex::decode_to_array(b"0x6b697769").unwrap();
assert_eq!(&bytes, b"kiwi");
