BufRead in async_std::io - Rust (original) (raw)
pub trait BufRead: AsyncRead {
// Required methods
fn poll_fill_buf(
self: Pin<&mut Self>,
cx: &mut Context<'_>,
) -> Poll<Result<&[u8], Error>>;
fn consume(self: Pin<&mut Self>, amt: usize);
}
Expand description
Read bytes asynchronously.
This trait is analogous to the std::io::BufRead
trait, but integrates with the asynchronous task system. In particular, the poll_fill_buf
method, unlike BufRead::fill_buf
, will automatically queue the current task for wakeup and return if data is not yet available, rather than blocking the calling thread.
Attempt to return the contents of the internal buffer, filling it with more data from the inner reader if it is empty.
On success, returns Poll::Ready(Ok(buf))
.
If no data is available for reading, the method returnsPoll::Pending
and arranges for the current task (viacx.waker().wake_by_ref()
) to receive a notification when the object becomes readable or is closed.
This function is a lower-level call. It needs to be paired with theconsume method to function properly. When calling this method, none of the contents will be “read” in the sense that later calling poll_read may return the same contents. As such, consume must be called with the number of bytes that are consumed from this buffer to ensure that the bytes are never returned twice.
An empty buffer returned indicates that the stream has reached EOF.
§Implementation
This function may not return errors of kind WouldBlock
orInterrupted
. Implementations must convert WouldBlock
intoPoll::Pending
and either internally retry or convertInterrupted
into another error kind.
Tells this buffer that amt
bytes have been consumed from the buffer, so they should no longer be returned in calls to poll_read.
This function is a lower-level call. It needs to be paired with thepoll_fill_buf method to function properly. This function does not perform any I/O, it simply informs this object that some amount of its buffer, returned from poll_fill_buf, has been consumed and should no longer be returned. As such, this function may do odd things ifpoll_fill_buf isn’t called before calling it.
The amt
must be <=
the number of bytes in the buffer returned bypoll_fill_buf.
