Struct LiteralsSection

pub struct LiteralsSection {
    pub regenerated_size: u32,
    pub compressed_size: Option<u32>,
    pub num_streams: Option<u8>,
    pub ls_type: LiteralsSectionType,
}

A compressed block consists of two sections, a literals section, and a sequences section.

This is the first of those two sections. A literal is just any arbitrary data, and it is copied by the sequences section

Fields

regenerated_size: u32

• If this block is of type LiteralsSectionType::Raw, then the data is regenerated_bytes bytes long, and it contains the raw literals data to be used during the second section, the sequences section.
• If this block is of type LiteralsSectionType::RLE, then the literal consists of a single byte repeated regenerated_size times.
• For types LiteralsSectionType::Compressed or LiteralsSectionType::Treeless, then this is the size of the decompressed data.

compressed_size: Option<u32>

• For types LiteralsSectionType::Raw and LiteralsSectionType::RLE, this value is not present.
• For types LiteralsSectionType::Compressed and LiteralsSectionType::Treeless, this value will be set to the size of the compressed data.

num_streams: Option<u8>

This value will be either 1 stream or 4 streams if the literal is of type LiteralsSectionType::Compressed or LiteralsSectionType::Treeless, and it is not used for RLE or uncompressed literals.

ls_type: LiteralsSectionType

The type of the literal section.

Implementations

impl LiteralsSection

pub fn new() -> LiteralsSection

Create a new LiteralsSection.

pub fn header_bytes_needed( &self, first_byte: u8, ) -> Result<u8, LiteralsSectionParseError>

Given the first byte of a header, determine the size of the whole header, from 1 to 5 bytes.

pub fn parse_from_header( &mut self, raw: &[u8], ) -> Result<u8, LiteralsSectionParseError>

Parse the header into self, and returns the number of bytes read.

Trait Implementations

impl Default for LiteralsSection

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.
