//! Asynchronous stream of bytes.
//!
//! This crate contains the `BufStream` trait and a number of combinators for
//! this trait. The trait is similar to `Stream` in the `futures` library, but
//! instead of yielding arbitrary values, it only yields types that implement
//! `Buf` (i.e, byte collections).

/// buffers.

/// Values yielded by the `BufStream`.

type Error;
/// Attempt to pull out the next buffer of this stream, registering the
/// current task for wakeup if the value is not yet available, and returning
/// `None` if the stream is exhausted.
///
/// # Return value
///
/// There are several possible return values, each indicating a distinct
/// stream state:
///
/// - `Ok(Async::NotReady)` means that this stream's next value is not ready
/// yet. Implementations will ensure that the current task will be notified
/// when the next value may be ready.
///
/// - `Ok(Async::Ready(Some(buf)))` means that the stream has successfully
/// produced a value, `buf`, and may produce further values on subsequent
/// `poll_buf` calls.
///
/// - `Ok(Async::Ready(None))` means that the stream has terminated, and
/// `poll_buf` should not be invoked again.
///
/// # Panics
///
/// Once a stream is finished, i.e. `Ready(None)` has been returned, further
/// calls to `poll_buf` may result in a panic or other "bad behavior".
fn poll_buf(&mut self) -> Poll<Option<Self::Item>, Self::Error>;
/// Returns the bounds on the remaining length of the stream.
///
/// The size hint allows the caller to perform certain optimizations that
/// are dependent on the byte stream size. For example, `collect` uses the
/// size hint to pre-allocate enough capacity to store the entirety of the
/// data received from the byte stream.
///
/// When `SizeHint::upper()` returns `Some` with a value equal to
/// `SizeHint::lower()`, this represents the exact number of bytes that will
/// be yielded by the `BufStream`.
///
/// # Implementation notes
///
/// While not enforced, implementations are expected to respect the values
/// returned from `SizeHint`. Any deviation is considered an implementation
/// bug. Consumers may rely on correctness in order to use the value as part
/// of protocol impelmentations. For example, an HTTP library may use the
/// size hint to set the `content-length` header.
///
/// However, `size_hint` must not be trusted to omit bounds checks in unsafe
/// code. An incorrect implementation of `size_hint()` must not lead to
/// memory safety violations.
