}Expand description
Blocking writer.
This trait is the embedded-io equivalent of std::io::Write.
Required Methods§
sourcefn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<usize, Self::Error>
fn write(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<usize, Self::Error>
Write a buffer into this writer, returning how many bytes were written.
If the writer is not currently ready to accept more bytes (for example, its buffer is full), this function blocks until it is ready to accept least one byte.
If it’s ready to accept bytes, a non-zero amount of bytes is written from the beginning of buf, and the amount
is returned. It is not guaranteed that all available buffer space is filled, i.e. it is possible for the
implementation to write an amount of bytes less than buf.len() while the writer continues to be
ready to accept more bytes immediately.
Implementations must not return Ok(0) unless buf is empty. Situations where the
writer is not able to accept more bytes must instead be indicated with an error,
where the ErrorKind is WriteZero.
If buf is empty, write returns without blocking, with either Ok(0) or an error.
Ok(0) doesn’t indicate an error.
Provided Methods§
sourcefn write_all(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<(), Self::Error>
fn write_all(&mut self, buf: &[u8]) -> Result<(), Self::Error>
Write an entire buffer into this writer.
This function calls write() in a loop until exactly buf.len() bytes have
been written, blocking if needed.
If you are using WriteReady to avoid blocking, you should not use this function.
WriteReady::write_ready() returning true only guarantees the first call to write() will
not block, so this function may still block in subsequent calls.
This function will panic if write() returns Ok(0).
sourcefn write_fmt(
&mut self,
fmt: Arguments<'_>
) -> Result<(), WriteFmtError<Self::Error>>
fn write_fmt( &mut self, fmt: Arguments<'_> ) -> Result<(), WriteFmtError<Self::Error>>
Write a formatted string into this writer, returning any error encountered.
This function calls write() in a loop until the entire formatted string has
been written, blocking if needed.
If you are using WriteReady to avoid blocking, you should not use this function.
WriteReady::write_ready() returning true only guarantees the first call to write() will
not block, so this function may still block in subsequent calls.
Unlike Write::write, the number of bytes written is not returned. However, in the case of
writing to an &mut [u8] its possible to calculate the number of bytes written by subtracting
the length of the slice after the write, from the initial length of the slice.
let mut buf: &mut [u8] = &mut [0u8; 256];
let start = buf.len();
let len = write!(buf, "{}", "Test").and_then(|_| Ok(start - buf.len()));Implementations on Foreign Types§
source§impl Write for &mut [u8]
impl Write for &mut [u8]
Write is implemented for &mut [u8] by copying into the slice, overwriting
its data.
Note that writing updates the slice to point to the yet unwritten part. The slice will be empty when it has been completely overwritten.
If the number of bytes to be written exceeds the size of the slice, write operations will
return short writes: ultimately, a SliceWriteError::Full.
