bitstream-io

A Rust library for reading or writing binary values to or from streams which may not be aligned at a whole byte.

This library is intended to be flexible enough to wrap around any stream which implements the Read or Write traits. It also supports a wide array of integer data types as containers for those binary values.

Minimum Compiler Version

Beginning with version 2.4, the minimum compiler version has been updated to Rust 1.79 in order to support compile-time assertion in const blocks, which can be used to check for a class of errors at compile-time rather than runtime.
