Implementations

§

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore + Radium, O: BitOrder,

Methods available only when T allows shared mutability.

pub fn set_aliased(&self, index: usize, value: bool)

Writes a new value into a single bit, using alias-safe operations.

This is equivalent to .set(), except that it does not require an &mut reference, and allows bit-slices with alias-safe storage to share write permissions.

§Parameters
  • &self: This method only exists on bit-slices with alias-safe storage, and so does not require exclusive access.
  • index: The bit index to set. It must be in 0 .. self.len().
  • value: The new bit-value to write into the bit at index.
§Panics

This panics if index is out of bounds.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;
use core::cell::Cell;

let bits: &BitSlice<_, _> = bits![Cell<usize>, Lsb0; 0, 1];
bits.set_aliased(0, true);
bits.set_aliased(1, false);

assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 0]);

pub unsafe fn set_aliased_unchecked(&self, index: usize, value: bool)

Writes a new value into a single bit, using alias-safe operations and without bounds checking.

This is equivalent to .set_unchecked(), except that it does not require an &mut reference, and allows bit-slices with alias-safe storage to share write permissions.

§Parameters
  • &self: This method only exists on bit-slices with alias-safe storage, and so does not require exclusive access.
  • index: The bit index to set. It must be in 0 .. self.len().
  • value: The new bit-value to write into the bit at index.
§Safety

The caller must ensure that index is not out of bounds.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;
use core::cell::Cell;

let data = Cell::new(0u8);
let bits = &data.view_bits::<Lsb0>()[.. 2];
unsafe {
  bits.set_aliased_unchecked(3, true);
}
assert_eq!(data.get(), 8);
§

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

Alternates of standard APIs.

pub fn as_bitptr(&self) -> BitPtr<Const, T, O>

Gets a raw pointer to the zeroth bit of the bit-slice.

§Original

slice::as_ptr

§API Differences

This is renamed in order to indicate that it is returning a bitvec structure, not a raw pointer.

pub fn as_mut_bitptr(&mut self) -> BitPtr<Mut, T, O>

Gets a raw, write-capable pointer to the zeroth bit of the bit-slice.

§Original

slice::as_mut_ptr

§API Differences

This is renamed in order to indicate that it is returning a bitvec structure, not a raw pointer.

pub fn as_bitptr_range(&self) -> BitPtrRange<Const, T, O>

Views the bit-slice as a half-open range of bit-pointers, to its first bit in the bit-slice and first bit beyond it.

§Original

slice::as_ptr_range

§API Differences

This is renamed to indicate that it returns a bitvec structure, rather than an ordinary Range.

§Notes

BitSlice does define a .as_ptr_range(), which returns a Range<BitPtr>. BitPtrRange has additional capabilities that Range<*const T> and Range<BitPtr> do not.

pub fn as_mut_bitptr_range(&mut self) -> BitPtrRange<Mut, T, O>

Views the bit-slice as a half-open range of write-capable bit-pointers, to its first bit in the bit-slice and the first bit beyond it.

§Original

slice::as_mut_ptr_range

§API Differences

This is renamed to indicate that it returns a bitvec structure, rather than an ordinary Range.

§Notes

BitSlice does define a [.as_mut_ptr_range()], which returns a Range<BitPtr>. BitPtrRange has additional capabilities that Range<*mut T> and Range<BitPtr> do not.

pub fn clone_from_bitslice<T2, O2>(&mut self, src: &BitSlice<T2, O2>)
where T2: BitStore, O2: BitOrder,

Copies the bits from src into self.

self and src must have the same length.

§Performance

If src has the same type arguments as self, it will use the same implementation as .copy_from_bitslice(); if you know that this will always be the case, you should prefer to use that method directly.

Only .copy_from_bitslice() is able to perform acceleration; this method is always required to perform a bit-by-bit crawl over both bit-slices.

§Original

slice::clone_from_slice

§API Differences

This is renamed to reflect that it copies from another bit-slice, not from an element slice.

In order to support general usage, it allows src to have different type parameters than self, at the cost of performance optimizations.

§Panics

This panics if the two bit-slices have different lengths.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

pub fn copy_from_bitslice(&mut self, src: &BitSlice<T, O>)

Copies all bits from src into self, using batched acceleration when possible.

self and src must have the same length.

§Original

slice::copy_from_slice

§Panics

This panics if the two bit-slices have different lengths.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

pub fn swap_with_bitslice<T2, O2>(&mut self, other: &mut BitSlice<T2, O2>)
where T2: BitStore, O2: BitOrder,

Swaps the contents of two bit-slices.

self and other must have the same length.

§Original

slice::swap_with_slice

§API Differences

This method is renamed, as it takes a bit-slice rather than an element slice.

§Panics

This panics if the two bit-slices have different lengths.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut one = [0xA5u8, 0x69];
let mut two = 0x1234u16;
let one_bits = one.view_bits_mut::<Msb0>();
let two_bits = two.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>();

one_bits.swap_with_bitslice(two_bits);

assert_eq!(one, [0x2C, 0x48]);
assert_eq!(two, 0x96A5);
§

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

Bit-value queries.

pub fn count_ones(&self) -> usize

Counts the number of bits set to 1 in the bit-slice contents.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![1, 1, 0, 0];
assert_eq!(bits[.. 2].count_ones(), 2);
assert_eq!(bits[2 ..].count_ones(), 0);
assert_eq!(bits![].count_ones(), 0);

pub fn count_zeros(&self) -> usize

Counts the number of bits cleared to 0 in the bit-slice contents.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![1, 1, 0, 0];
assert_eq!(bits[.. 2].count_zeros(), 0);
assert_eq!(bits[2 ..].count_zeros(), 2);
assert_eq!(bits![].count_zeros(), 0);

pub fn iter_ones(&self) -> IterOnes<'_, T, O>

Enumerates the index of each bit in a bit-slice set to 1.

This is a shorthand for a .enumerate().filter_map() iterator that selects the index of each true bit; however, its implementation is eligible for optimizations that the individual-bit iterator is not.

Specializations for the Lsb0 and Msb0 orderings allow processors with instructions that seek particular bits within an element to operate on whole elements, rather than on each bit individually.

§Examples

This example uses .iter_ones(), a .filter_map() that finds the index of each set bit, and the known indices, in order to show that they have equivalent behavior.

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 1];

let iter_ones = bits.iter_ones();
let known_indices = [1, 4, 8].iter().copied();
let filter = bits.iter()
  .by_vals()
  .enumerate()
  .filter_map(|(idx, bit)| if bit { Some(idx) } else { None });
let all = iter_ones.zip(known_indices).zip(filter);

for ((iter_one, known), filtered) in all {
  assert_eq!(iter_one, known);
  assert_eq!(known, filtered);
}

pub fn iter_zeros(&self) -> IterZeros<'_, T, O>

Enumerates the index of each bit in a bit-slice cleared to 0.

This is a shorthand for a .enumerate().filter_map() iterator that selects the index of each false bit; however, its implementation is eligible for optimizations that the individual-bit iterator is not.

Specializations for the Lsb0 and Msb0 orderings allow processors with instructions that seek particular bits within an element to operate on whole elements, rather than on each bit individually.

§Examples

This example uses .iter_zeros(), a .filter_map() that finds the index of each cleared bit, and the known indices, in order to show that they have equivalent behavior.

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0];

let iter_zeros = bits.iter_zeros();
let known_indices = [1, 4, 8].iter().copied();
let filter = bits.iter()
  .by_vals()
  .enumerate()
  .filter_map(|(idx, bit)| if !bit { Some(idx) } else { None });
let all = iter_zeros.zip(known_indices).zip(filter);

for ((iter_zero, known), filtered) in all {
  assert_eq!(iter_zero, known);
  assert_eq!(known, filtered);
}

pub fn first_one(&self) -> Option<usize>

assert_eq!(bits![1, 0].first_zero(), Some(1));

pub fn last_one(&self) -> Option<usize>

Finds the index of the last bit in the bit-slice set to 1.

Returns None if there is no true bit in the bit-slice.

assert_eq!(bits![0, 1].trailing_ones(), 1);

pub fn trailing_zeros(&self) -> usize

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

Buffer manipulation.

pub fn shift_left(&mut self, by: usize)

Shifts the contents of a bit-slice “left” (towards the zero-index), clearing the “right” bits to 0.

This is a strictly-worse analogue to taking bits = &bits[by ..]: it has to modify the entire memory region that bits governs, and destroys contained information. Unless the actual memory layout and contents of your bit-slice matters to your program, you should probably prefer to munch your way forward through a bit-slice handle.

Note also that the “left” here is semantic only, and does not necessarily correspond to a left-shift instruction applied to the underlying integer storage.

This has no effect when by is 0. When by is self.len(), the bit-slice is entirely cleared to 0.

§Panics

This panics if by is not less than self.len().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1];
// these bits are retained ^--------------------------^
bits.shift_left(2);
assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0]);
// and move here       ^--------------------------^

let bits = bits![mut 1; 2];
bits.shift_left(2);
assert_eq!(bits, bits![0; 2]);

pub fn shift_right(&mut self, by: usize)

Shifts the contents of a bit-slice “right” (away from the zero-index), clearing the “left” bits to 0.

This is a strictly-worse analogue to taking `bits = &bits[.. bits.len()

  • by]: it must modify the entire memory region that bits` governs, and destroys contained information. Unless the actual memory layout and contents of your bit-slice matters to your program, you should probably prefer to munch your way backward through a bit-slice handle.

Note also that the “right” here is semantic only, and does not necessarily correspond to a right-shift instruction applied to the underlying integer storage.

This has no effect when by is 0. When by is self.len(), the bit-slice is entirely cleared to 0.

§Panics

This panics if by is not less than self.len().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1];
// these bits stay   ^--------------------------^
bits.shift_right(2);
assert_eq!(bits, bits![0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1]);
// and move here             ^--------------------------^

let bits = bits![mut 1; 2];
bits.shift_right(2);

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

Constructors.

pub fn empty<'a>() -> &'a BitSlice<T, O>

Produces an empty bit-slice with an arbitrary lifetime.

§Original

This is equivalent to the &[] literal.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

assert!(BitSlice::<u16, LocalBits>::empty().is_empty());
assert_eq!(bits![], BitSlice::<u8, Msb0>::empty());

pub fn empty_mut<'a>() -> &'a mut BitSlice<T, O>

Produces an empty bit-slice with an arbitrary lifetime.

§Original

This is equivalent to the &mut [] literal.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

assert!(BitSlice::<u16, LocalBits>::empty_mut().is_empty());
assert_eq!(bits![mut], BitSlice::<u8, Msb0>::empty_mut());

pub fn from_element(elem: &T) -> &BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs a shared &BitSlice reference over a shared element.

The BitView trait, implemented on all BitStore implementors, provides a .view_bits::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

§Parameters
  • elem: A shared reference to a memory element.
§Returns

A shared &BitSlice over elem.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let elem = 0u8;
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Lsb0>::from_element(&elem);
assert_eq!(bits.len(), 8);

let bits = elem.view_bits::<Lsb0>();

pub fn from_element_mut(elem: &mut T) -> &mut BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs an exclusive &mut BitSlice reference over an element.

The BitView trait, implemented on all BitStore implementors, provides a .view_bits_mut::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

§Parameters
  • elem: An exclusive reference to a memory element.
§Returns

An exclusive &mut BitSlice over elem.

Note that the original elem reference will be inaccessible for the duration of the returned bit-slice handle’s lifetime.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut elem = 0u8;
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Lsb0>::from_element_mut(&mut elem);
bits.set(1, true);
assert!(bits[1]);
assert_eq!(elem, 2);

let bits = elem.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>();

pub fn from_slice(slice: &[T]) -> &BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs a shared &BitSlice reference over a slice of elements.

The BitView trait, implemented on all [T] slices, provides a .view_bits::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

§Parameters
  • slice: A shared reference to a slice of memory elements.
§Returns

A shared BitSlice reference over all of slice.

§Panics

This will panic if slice is too long to encode as a bit-slice view.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let data = [0u16, 1];
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Lsb0>::from_slice(&data);
assert!(bits[16]);

let bits = data.view_bits::<Lsb0>();

pub fn try_from_slice(slice: &[T]) -> Result<&BitSlice<T, O>, BitSpanError<T>>

Attempts to construct a shared &BitSlice reference over a slice of elements.

The BitView, implemented on all [T] slices, provides a .try_view_bits::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

This is very hard, if not impossible, to cause to fail. Rust will not create excessive arrays on 64-bit architectures.

§Parameters
  • slice: A shared reference to a slice of memory elements.
§Returns

A shared &BitSlice over slice. If slice is longer than can be encoded into a &BitSlice (see MAX_ELTS), this will fail and return the original slice as an error.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let data = [0u8, 1];
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Msb0>::try_from_slice(&data).unwrap();
assert!(bits[15]);

let bits = data.try_view_bits::<Msb0>().unwrap();

pub fn from_slice_mut(slice: &mut [T]) -> &mut BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs an exclusive &mut BitSlice reference over a slice of elements.

The BitView trait, implemented on all [T] slices, provides a .view_bits_mut::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

§Parameters
  • slice: An exclusive reference to a slice of memory elements.
§Returns

An exclusive &mut BitSlice over all of slice.

§Panics

This panics if slice is too long to encode as a bit-slice view.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut data = [0u16; 2];
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Lsb0>::from_slice_mut(&mut data);
bits.set(0, true);
bits.set(17, true);
assert_eq!(data, [1, 2]);

let bits = data.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>();

pub fn try_from_slice_mut( slice: &mut [T] ) -> Result<&mut BitSlice<T, O>, BitSpanError<T>>

Attempts to construct an exclusive &mut BitSlice reference over a slice of elements.

The BitView trait, implemented on all [T] slices, provides a .try_view_bits_mut::<O>() method which delegates to this function and may be more convenient for you to write.

§Parameters
  • slice: An exclusive reference to a slice of memory elements.
§Returns

An exclusive &mut BitSlice over slice. If slice is longer than can be encoded into a &mut BitSlice (see MAX_ELTS), this will fail and return the original slice as an error.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut data = [0u8; 2];
let bits = BitSlice::<_, Msb0>::try_from_slice_mut(&mut data).unwrap();
bits.set(7, true);
bits.set(15, true);
assert_eq!(data, [1; 2]);

let bits = data.try_view_bits_mut::<Msb0>().unwrap();

pub unsafe fn from_slice_unchecked(slice: &[T]) -> &BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs a shared &BitSlice over an element slice, without checking its length.

If slice is too long to encode into a &BitSlice, then the produced bit-slice’s length is unspecified.

§Safety

You must ensure that slice.len() < BitSlice::MAX_ELTS.

Calling this function with an over-long slice is library-level undefined behavior. You may not assume anything about its implementation or behavior, and must conservatively assume that over-long slices cause compiler UB.

pub unsafe fn from_slice_unchecked_mut(slice: &mut [T]) -> &mut BitSlice<T, O>

Constructs an exclusive &mut BitSlice over an element slice, without checking its length.

If slice is too long to encode into a &mut BitSlice, then the produced bit-slice’s length is unspecified.

§Safety

You must ensure that slice.len() < BitSlice::MAX_ELTS.

Calling this function with an over-long slice is library-level undefined behavior. You may not assume anything about its implementation or behavior, and must conservatively assume that over-long slices cause compiler UB.

impl<T, O> BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

Extensions of standard APIs.

pub fn set(&mut self, index: usize, value: bool)

Writes a new value into a single bit.

This is the replacement for *slice[index] = value;, as bitvec is not able to express that under the current IndexMut API signature.

§Parameters
  • &mut self
  • index: The bit-index to set. It must be in 0 .. self.len().
  • value: The new bit-value to write into the bit at index.
§Panics

This panics if index is out of bounds.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0, 1];
bits.set(0, true);
bits.set(1, false);

assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 0]);

pub unsafe fn set_unchecked(&mut self, index: usize, value: bool)

Writes a new value into a single bit, without bounds checking.

§Parameters
  • &mut self
  • index: The bit-index to set. It must be in 0 .. self.len().
  • value: The new bit-value to write into the bit at index.
§Safety

You must ensure that index is in the range 0 .. self.len().

This performs bit-pointer offset arithmetic without doing any bounds checks. If index is out of bounds, then this will issue an out-of-bounds access and will trigger memory unsafety.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut data = 0u8;
let bits = &mut data.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>()[.. 2];
assert_eq!(bits.len(), 2);
unsafe {
  bits.set_unchecked(3, true);
}
assert_eq!(data, 8);

pub fn replace(&mut self, index: usize, value: bool) -> bool

Writes a new value into a bit, and returns its previous value.

§Panics

This panics if index is not less than self.len().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0];
assert!(!bits.replace(0, true));
assert!(bits[0]);

pub unsafe fn replace_unchecked(&mut self, index: usize, value: bool) -> bool

Writes a new value into a bit, returning the previous value, without bounds checking.

§Safety

index must be less than self.len().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0, 0];
let old = unsafe {
  let a = &mut bits[.. 1];
  a.replace_unchecked(1, true)
};
assert!(!old);
assert!(bits[1]);

pub unsafe fn swap_unchecked(&mut self, a: usize, b: usize)

Swaps two bits in a bit-slice, without bounds checking.

See .swap() for documentation.

§Safety

You must ensure that a and b are both in the range 0 .. self.len().

This method performs bit-pointer offset arithmetic without doing any bounds checks. If a or b are out of bounds, then this will issue an out-of-bounds access and will trigger memory unsafety.

pub unsafe fn split_at_unchecked( &self, mid: usize ) -> (&BitSlice<T, O>, &BitSlice<T, O>)

Splits a bit-slice at an index, without bounds checking.

See .split_at() for documentation.

§Safety

You must ensure that mid is in the range 0 ..= self.len().

This method produces new bit-slice references. If mid is out of bounds, its behavior is library-level undefined. You must conservatively assume that an out-of-bounds split point produces compiler-level UB.

pub unsafe fn split_at_unchecked_mut( &mut self, mid: usize ) -> (&mut BitSlice<<T as BitStore>::Alias, O>, &mut BitSlice<<T as BitStore>::Alias, O>)

Splits a mutable bit-slice at an index, without bounds checking.

See .split_at_mut() for documentation.

§Safety

You must ensure that mid is in the range 0 ..= self.len().

This method produces new bit-slice references. If mid is out of bounds, its behavior is library-level undefined. You must conservatively assume that an out-of-bounds split point produces compiler-level UB.

pub unsafe fn copy_within_unchecked<R>(&mut self, src: R, dest: usize)
where R: RangeExt<usize>,

Copies bits from one region of the bit-slice to another region of itself, without doing bounds checks.

The regions are allowed to overlap.

§Parameters
  • &mut self
  • src: The range within self from which to copy.
  • dst: The starting index within self at which to paste.
§Effects

self[src] is copied to self[dest .. dest + src.len()]. The bits of self[src] are in an unspecified, but initialized, state.

§Safety

src.end() and dest + src.len() must be entirely within bounds.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut data = 0b1011_0000u8;
let bits = data.view_bits_mut::<Msb0>();

unsafe {
  bits.copy_within_unchecked(.. 4, 2);
}
assert_eq!(data, 0b1010_1100);

pub const MAX_BITS: usize = 2_305_843_009_213_693_951usize

The inclusive maximum length of a BitSlice<_, T>.

As BitSlice is zero-indexed, the largest possible index is one less than this value.

CPU word widthValue

pub const MAX_ELTS: usize = BitSpan<Const, T, O>::REGION_MAX_ELTS

The inclusive maximum length that a [T] slice can be for BitSlice<_, T> to cover it.

A BitSlice<_, T> that begins in the interior of an element and contains the maximum number of bits will extend one element past the cutoff that would occur if the bit-slice began at the zeroth bit. Such a bit-slice is difficult to manually construct, but would not otherwise fail.

pub fn get<'a, I>( &'a self, index: I ) -> Option<<I as BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>>::Immut>
where I: BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>,

Gets a reference to a single bit or a subsection of the bit-slice, depending on the type of index.

  • If given a usize, this produces a reference structure to the bool at the position.
  • If given any form of range, this produces a smaller bit-slice.

This returns None if the index departs the bounds of self.

§Original

slice::get

§API Differences

BitSliceIndex uses discrete types for immutable and mutable references, rather than a single referent type.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0];
assert_eq!(bits.get(1).as_deref(), Some(&true));

pub unsafe fn get_unchecked<'a, I>( &'a self, index: I ) -> <I as BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>>::Immut
where I: BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>,

Gets a reference to a single bit or to a subsection of the bit-slice, without bounds checking.

This has the same arguments and behavior as .get(), except that it does not check that index is in bounds.

§Original

slice::get_unchecked

§Safety

You must ensure that index is within bounds (within the range 0 .. self.len()), or this method will introduce memory safety and/or undefined behavior.

It is library-level undefined behavior to index beyond the length of any bit-slice, even if you know that the offset remains within an allocation as measured by Rust or LLVM.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let data = 0b0001_0010u8;
let bits = &data.view_bits::<Lsb0>()[.. 3];

unsafe {
  assert!(bits.get_unchecked(1));
  assert!(bits.get_unchecked(4));
}

pub unsafe fn get_unchecked_mut<'a, I>( &'a mut self, index: I ) -> <I as BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>>::Mut
where I: BitSliceIndex<'a, T, O>,

Gets a mutable reference to a single bit or a subsection of the bit-slice, depending on the type of index.

This has the same arguments and behavior as .get_mut(), except that it does not check that index is in bounds.

§Original

slice::get_unchecked_mut

pub fn as_ptr(&self) -> BitPtr<Const, T, O>

👎Deprecated: use .as_bitptr() instead

pub fn as_mut_ptr(&mut self) -> BitPtr<Mut, T, O>

👎Deprecated: use .as_mut_bitptr() instead

pub fn as_ptr_range(&self) -> Range<BitPtr<Const, T, O>>

Produces a range of bit-pointers to each bit in the bit-slice.

This is a standard-library range, which has no real functionality for pointer types. You should prefer .as_bitptr_range() instead, as it produces a custom structure that provides expected ranging functionality.

§Original

slice::as_ptr_range

pub fn as_mut_ptr_range(&mut self) -> Range<BitPtr<Mut, T, O>>

Produces a range of mutable bit-pointers to each bit in the bit-slice.

This is a standard-library range, which has no real functionality for pointer types. You should prefer .as_mut_bitptr_range() instead, as it produces a custom structure that provides expected ranging functionality.

§Original

slice::as_mut_ptr_range

pub fn swap(&mut self, a: usize, b: usize)

Exchanges the bit values at two indices.

§Original

slice::swap

§Panics

This panics if either a or b are out of bounds.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0, 1];
bits.swap(0, 1);
assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 0]);

pub fn reverse(&mut self)

Reverses the order of bits in a bit-slice.

§Original

slice::reverse

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0, 0, 1, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1];
bits.reverse();
assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 1, 0, 0]);

pub fn iter(&self) -> Iter<'_, T, O>

Produces an iterator over each bit in the bit-slice.

§Original

slice::iter

§API Differences

This iterator yields proxy-reference structures, not &bool. It can be adapted to yield &bool with the .by_refs() method, or bool with .by_vals().

This iterator, and its adapters, are fast. Do not try to be more clever than them by abusing .as_bitptr_range().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 1];
let mut iter = bits.iter();

assert!(!iter.next().unwrap());
assert!( iter.next().unwrap());
assert!( iter.next_back().unwrap());
assert!(!iter.next_back().unwrap());
assert!( iter.next().is_none());

pub fn iter_mut(&mut self) -> IterMut<'_, T, O>

Produces a mutable iterator over each bit in the bit-slice.

§Original

slice::iter_mut

§API Differences

This iterator yields proxy-reference structures, not &mut bool. In addition, it marks each proxy as alias-tainted.

If you are using this in an ordinary loop and not keeping multiple yielded proxy-references alive at the same scope, you may use the .remove_alias() adapter to undo the alias marking.

This iterator is fast. Do not try to be more clever than it by abusing .as_mut_bitptr_range().

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0; 4];
let mut iter = bits.iter_mut();

iter.nth(1).unwrap().commit(true); // index 1
iter.next_back().unwrap().commit(true); // index 3

assert!(iter.next().is_some()); // index 2
assert!(iter.next().is_none()); // complete
assert_eq!(bits, bits![0, 1, 0, 1]);

pub fn windows(&self, size: usize) -> Windows<'_, T, O>

Iterates over consecutive windowing subslices in a bit-slice.

Windows are overlapping views of the bit-slice. Each window advances one bit from the previous, so in a bit-slice [A, B, C, D, E], calling .windows(3) will yield [A, B, C], [B, C, D], and [C, D, E].

§Original

slice::windows

§Panics

This panics if size is 0.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 0, 1];
let mut iter = bits.windows(3);

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 1, 0]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![1, 0, 0]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 0, 1]));
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

pub fn chunks(&self, chunk_size: usize) -> Chunks<'_, T, O>

Iterates over non-overlapping subslices of a bit-slice.

Unlike .windows(), the subslices this yields do not overlap with each other. If self.len() is not an even multiple of chunk_size, then the last chunk yielded will be shorter.

§Original

slice::chunks

§Sibling Methods
  • .chunks_mut() has the same division logic, but each yielded bit-slice is mutable.
  • .chunks_exact() does not yield the final chunk if it is shorter than chunk_size.
  • .rchunks() iterates from the back of the bit-slice to the front, with the final, possibly-shorter, segment at the front edge.
§Panics

This panics if chunk_size is 0.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 0, 1];
let mut iter = bits.chunks(2);

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 1]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 0]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![1]));
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

pub fn chunks_mut(&mut self, chunk_size: usize) -> ChunksMut<'_, T, O>

Iterates over non-overlapping mutable subslices of a bit-slice.

Iterators do not require that each yielded item is destroyed before the next is produced. This means that each bit-slice yielded must be marked as aliased. If you are using this in a loop that does not collect multiple yielded subslices for the same scope, then you can remove the alias marking by calling the (unsafe) method .remove_alias() on the iterator.

§Original

slice::chunks_mut

§Sibling Methods
  • .chunks() has the same division logic, but each yielded bit-slice is immutable.
  • .chunks_exact_mut() does not yield the final chunk if it is shorter than chunk_size.
  • .rchunks_mut() iterates from the back of the bit-slice to the front, with the final, possibly-shorter, segment at the front edge.
§Panics

This panics if chunk_size is 0.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut u8, Msb0; 0; 5];

for (idx, chunk) in unsafe {
  bits.chunks_mut(2).remove_alias()
}.enumerate() {
  chunk.store(idx + 1);
}
assert_eq!(bits, bits![0, 1, 1, 0, 1]);
//                     ^^^^  ^^^^  ^

pub fn chunks_exact(&self, chunk_size: usize) -> ChunksExact<'_, T, O>

Iterates over non-overlapping subslices of a bit-slice.

If self.len() is not an even multiple of chunk_size, then the last few bits are not yielded by the iterator at all. They can be accessed with the .remainder() method if the iterator is bound to a name.

§Original

slice::chunks_exact

§Sibling Methods
  • .chunks() yields any leftover bits at the end as a shorter chunk during iteration.
  • .chunks_exact_mut() has the same division logic, but each yielded bit-slice is mutable.
  • .rchunks_exact() iterates from the back of the bit-slice to the front, with the unyielded remainder segment at the front edge.
§Panics

This panics if chunk_size is 0.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 0, 1];
let mut iter = bits.chunks_exact(2);

assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 1]));
assert_eq!(iter.next(), Some(bits![0, 0]));
assert!(iter.next().is_none());
assert_eq!(iter.remainder(), bits![1]);

pub fn chunks_exact_mut( &mut self, chunk_size: usize ) -> ChunksExactMut<'_, T, O>

Iterates over non-overlapping mutable subslices of a bit-slice.

If self.len() is not an even multiple of chunk_size, then the last few bits are not yielded by the iterator at all. They can be accessed with the .into_remainder() method if the iterator is bound to a name.

Iterators do not require that each yielded item is destroyed before the next is produced. This means that each bit-slice yielded must be marked as aliased. If you are using this in a loop that does not collect multiple yielded subslices for the same scope, then you can remove the alias marking by calling the (unsafe) method .remove_alias() on the iterator.

§Panics

This panics if chunk_size is 0.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut u8, Msb0; 0; 5];
let mut iter = bits.chunks_exact_mut(2);

//                       remainder ^

pub fn rchunks(&self, chunk_size: usize) -> RChunks<'_, T, O>

Iterates over non-overlapping subslices of a bit-slice, from the back edge.

Unlike .chunks(), this aligns its chunks to the back edge of self. If self.len() is not an even multiple of chunk_size, then the leftover partial chunk is self[0 .. len % chunk_size].

§Original

§Sibling Methods
  • .rchunks_mut() has the same division logic, but each yielded bit-slice is mutable.
  • .rchunks_exact() does not yield the final chunk if it is shorter than chunk_size.

pub fn split_at(&self, mid: usize) -> (&BitSlice<T, O>, &BitSlice<T, O>)

Splits a bit-slice in two parts at an index.

The returned bit-slices are self[.. mid] and self[mid ..]. mid is included in the right bit-slice, not the left.

If mid is 0 then the left bit-slice is empty; if it is self.len() then the right bit-slice is empty.

This method guarantees that even when either partition is empty, the encoded bit-pointer values of the bit-slice references is &self[0] and &self[mid].

§Original

slice::split_at

§Panics

This panics if mid is greater than self.len(). It is allowed to be equal to the length, in which case the right bit-slice is simply empty.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1];
let base = bits.as_bitptr();

let (a, b) = bits.split_at(0);
assert_eq!(unsafe { a.as_bitptr().offset_from(base) }, 0);
assert_eq!(unsafe { b.as_bitptr().offset_from(base) }, 0);

let (a, b) = bits.split_at(3);
assert_eq!(a, bits![0; 3]);
assert_eq!(b, bits![1; 3]);

pub fn split_at_mut( &mut self, mid: usize ) -> (&mut BitSlice<<T as BitStore>::Alias, O>, &mut BitSlice<<T as BitStore>::Alias, O>)

Splits a mutable bit-slice in two parts at an index.

The returned bit-slices are self[.. mid] and self[mid ..]. mid is included in the right bit-slice, not the left.

If mid is 0 then the left bit-slice is empty; if it is self.len() then the right bit-slice is empty.

This method guarantees that even when either partition is empty, the encoded bit-pointer values of the bit-slice references is &self[0] and &self[mid].

§Original

slice::split_at_mut

§API Differences

The end bits of the left half and the start bits of the right half might be stored in the same memory element. In order to avoid breaking bitvec’s memory-safety guarantees, both bit-slices are marked as T::Alias. This marking allows them to be used without interfering with each other when they interact with memory.

§Panics

This panics if mid is greater than self.len(). It is allowed to be equal to the length, in which case the right bit-slice is simply empty.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut u8, Msb0; 0; 6];
let base = bits.as_mut_bitptr();

pub fn split<F>(&self, pred: F) -> Split<'_, T, O, F>
where F: FnMut(usize, &bool) -> bool,

Iterates over subslices separated by bits that match a predicate. The matched bit is not contained in the yielded bit-slices.

§Original

slice::split

§API Differences

The predicate function receives the index being tested as well as the bit value at that index. This allows the predicate to have more than one bit of information about the bit-slice being traversed.

§Sibling Methods
  • .split_mut() has the same splitting logic, but each yielded bit-slice is mutable.
  • .split_inclusive() includes the matched bit in the yielded bit-slice.
  • .rsplit() iterates from the back of the bit-slice instead of the front.
  • .splitn() times out after n yields.
§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 1, 0];
//                     ^
let mut iter = bits.split(|pos, _bit| pos % 3 == 2);

assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), bits![0, 1]);
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), bits![0]);
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

If the first bit is matched, then an empty bit-slice will be the first item yielded by the iterator. Similarly, if the last bit in the bit-slice matches, then an empty bit-slice will be the last item yielded.

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 0, 1];
//                     ^
let mut iter = bits.split(|_pos, bit| *bit);

assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), bits![0; 2]);
assert!(iter.next().unwrap().is_empty());
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

If two matched bits are directly adjacent, then an empty bit-slice will be yielded between them:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![1, 0, 0, 1];
//                  ^  ^
let mut iter = bits.split(|_pos, bit| !*bit);

assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), bits![1]);
assert!(iter.next().unwrap().is_empty());
assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), bits![1]);
assert!(iter.next().is_none());

pub fn split_mut<F>(&mut self, pred: F) -> SplitMut<'_, T, O, F>
where F: FnMut(usize, &bool) -> bool,

Iterates over mutable subslices separated by bits that match a predicate. The matched bit is not contained in the yielded bit-slices.

Iterators do not require that each yielded item is destroyed before the next is produced. This means that each bit-slice yielded must be marked as aliased. If you are using this in a loop that does not collect multiple yielded subslices for the same scope, then you can remove the alias marking by calling the (unsafe) method .remove_alias() on the iterator.

pub fn contains<T2, O2>(&self, other: &BitSlice<T2, O2>) -> bool
where T2: BitStore, O2: BitOrder,

Tests if the bit-slice contains the given sequence anywhere within it.

This scans over self.windows(other.len()) until one of the windows matches. The search key does not need to share type parameters with the bit-slice being tested, as the comparison is bit-wise. However, sharing type parameters will accelerate the comparison.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 1, 0];
assert!( bits.starts_with(bits![0, 1]));
assert!(!bits.starts_with(bits![1, 0]));

This always returns true if the needle is empty:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0];
let empty = bits![];
assert!(bits.starts_with(empty));
assert!(empty.starts_with(empty));

pub fn ends_with<T2, O2>(&self, needle: &BitSlice<T2, O2>) -> bool

pub fn strip_prefix<T2, O2>( &self, prefix: &BitSlice<T2, O2> ) -> Option<&BitSlice<T, O>>
where T2: BitStore, O2: BitOrder,

Removes a prefix bit-slice, if present.

Like .starts_with(), the search key does not need to share type parameters with the bit-slice being stripped. If self.starts_with(suffix), then this returns Some(&self[prefix.len() ..]), otherwise it returns None.

pub fn strip_suffix<T2, O2>( &self, suffix: &BitSlice<T2, O2> ) -> Option<&BitSlice<T, O>>
where T2: BitStore, O2: BitOrder,

Removes a suffix bit-slice, if present.

Like .ends_with(), the search key does not need to share type parameters with the bit-slice being stripped. If self.ends_with(suffix), then this returns Some(&self[.. self.len() - suffix.len()]), otherwise it returns None.

§Original

pub fn rotate_left(&mut self, by: usize)

Rotates the contents of a bit-slice to the left (towards the zero index).

This essentially splits the bit-slice at by, then exchanges the two pieces. self[.. by] becomes the first section, and is then followed by self[.. by].

The implementation is batch-accelerated where possible. It should have a runtime complexity much lower than O(by).

§Original

slice::rotate_left

§Examples

assert_eq!(bits, bits![1, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0]);

pub fn rotate_right(&mut self, by: usize)

Rotates the contents of a bit-slice to the right (away from the zero index).

This essentially splits the bit-slice at self.len() - by, then exchanges the two pieces. self[len - by ..] becomes the first section, and is then followed by self[.. len - by].

The implementation is batch-accelerated where possible. It should have a runtime complexity much lower than O(by).

pub fn fill(&mut self, value: bool)

Fills the bit-slice with a given bit.

This is a recent stabilization in the standard library. bitvec previously offered this behavior as the novel API .set_all(). That method name is now removed in favor of this standard-library analogue.

§Original

slice::fill

where F: FnMut(usize) -> bool,

Fills the bit-slice with bits produced by a generator function.

§Original

slice::fill_with

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bits = bits![mut 0; 5];

👎Deprecated: use .copy_from_bitslice() instead

pub fn copy_within<R>(&mut self, src: R, dest: usize)
where R: RangeExt<usize>,

Copies a span of bits to another location in the bit-slice.

src is the range of bit-indices in the bit-slice to copy, and dest is the starting index of the destination range. srcanddest .. dest + src.len()are permitted to overlap; the copy will automatically detect and manage this. However, bothsrcanddest .. dest + src.len()**must** fall within the bounds ofself`.

§Original

slice::copy_within

§Panics

This panics if either the source or destination range exceed self.len().

pub unsafe fn align_to<U>( &self ) -> (&BitSlice<T, O>, &BitSlice<U, O>, &BitSlice<T, O>)
where U: BitStore,

Produces bit-slice view(s) with different underlying storage types.

This may have unexpected effects, and you cannot assume that before[idx] == after[idx]! Consult the tables in the manual for information about memory layouts.

§Original

slice::align_to

§Notes

Unlike the standard library documentation, this explicitly guarantees that the middle bit-slice will have maximal size. You may rely on this property.

§Safety

You may not use this to cast away alias protections. Rust does not have support for higher-kinded types, so this cannot express the relation Outer<T> -> Outer<U> where Outer: BitStoreContainer, but memory safety does require that you respect this rule. Reälign integers to integers, Cells to Cells, and atomics to atomics, but do not cross these boundaries.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let bytes: [u8; 7] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
let bits = bytes.view_bits::<Lsb0>();
let (pfx, mid, sfx) = unsafe {

assert!(sfx.len() <= 8);

pub unsafe fn align_to_mut<U>( &mut self ) -> (&mut BitSlice<T, O>, &mut BitSlice<U, O>, &mut BitSlice<T, O>)

Views of underlying memory.

pub fn bit_domain(&self) -> BitDomain<'_, Const, T, O>

Partitions a bit-slice into maybe-contended and known-uncontended parts.

Since the new vector is freshly owned, this gets marked as ::Unalias to remove any guards that may have been inserted by the bit-slice’s history.

It does not use the underlying memory type, so that a BitSlice<_, Cell<_>> will produce a BitVec<_, Cell<_>>.

let bits = bits![0, 1, 0, 1];
let bv = bits.to_bitvec();

pub fn to_vec(&self) -> BitVec<<T as BitStore>::Unalias, O>

👎Deprecated: use .to_bitvec() instead

pub fn repeat(&self, n: usize) -> BitVec<<T as BitStore>::Unalias, O>

Creates a bit-vector by repeating a bit-slice n times.

§Original

§Panics

This method panics if self.len() * n exceeds the BitVec capacity.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

assert_eq!(bits![0, 1].repeat(3), bitvec![0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1]);

This panics by exceeding bit-vector maximum capacity:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

impl<T, O> Binary for BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

§Bit-Slice Rendering

This implementation prints the contents of a &BitSlice in one of binary, octal, or hexadecimal. It is important to note that this does not render the raw underlying memory! They render the semantically-ordered contents of the bit-slice as numerals. This distinction matters if you use type parameters that differ from those presumed by your debugger (which is usually <u8, Msb0>).

The output separates the T elements as individual list items, and renders each element as a base- 2, 8, or 16 numeric string. When walking an element, the bits traversed by the bit-slice are considered to be stored in most-significant-bit-first ordering. This means that index [0] is the high bit of the left-most digit, and index [n] is the low bit of the right-most digit, in a given printed word.

In order to render according to expectations of the Arabic numeral system, an element being transcribed is chunked into digits from the least-significant end of its rendered form. This is most noticeable in octal, which will always have a smaller ceiling on the left-most digit in a printed word, while the right-most digit in that word is able to use the full 0 ..= 7 numeral range.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let data = [
  0b000000_10u8,
// digits print LTR
  0b10_001_101,
// significance is computed RTL
  0b01_000000,
];
let bits = &data.view_bits::<Msb0>()[6 .. 18];

assert_eq!(format!("{:b}", bits), "[10, 10001101, 01]");
assert_eq!(format!("{:o}", bits), "[2, 215, 1]");
assert_eq!(format!("{:X}", bits), "[2, 8D, 1]");

The {:#} format modifier causes the standard 0b, 0o, or 0x prefix to be applied to each printed word. The other format specifiers are not interpreted by this implementation, and apply to the entire rendered text, not to individual words.

where T1: BitStore, T2: BitStore, O1: BitOrder, O2: BitOrder,

§

fn bitand_assign(&mut self, rhs: &BitSlice<T2, O2>)

§Boolean Arithmetic

This merges another bit-slice into self with a Boolean arithmetic operation. If the other bit-slice is shorter than self, it is zero-extended. For BitAnd, this clears all excess bits of self to 0; for BitOr and BitXor, it leaves them untouched

§Behavior

The Boolean operation proceeds across each bit-slice in iteration order. This is 3O(n) in the length of the shorter of self and rhs. However, it can be accelerated if rhs has the same type parameters as self, and both are using one of the orderings provided by bitvec. In this case, the implementation specializes to use BitField batch operations to operate on the slices one word at a time, rather than one bit.

Acceleration is not currently provided for custom bit-orderings that use the same storage type.

§Pre-1.0 Behavior

In the 0. development series, Boolean arithmetic was implemented against all I: Iterator<Item = bool>. This allowed code such as bits |= [false, true];, but forbad acceleration in the most common use case (combining two bit-slices) because BitSlice is not such an iterator.

Usage surveys indicate that it is better for the arithmetic operators to operate on bit-slices, and to allow the possibility of specialized acceleration, rather than to allow folding against any iterator of bools.

If pre-1.0 code relies on this behavior specifically, and has non-BitSlice arguments to the Boolean sigils, then they will need to be replaced with the equivalent loop.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let a = bits![mut 0, 0, 1, 1];
let b = bits![    0, 1, 0, 1];

*a ^= b;
assert_eq!(a, bits![0, 1, 1, 0]);

let c = bits![mut 0, 0, 1, 1];
let d = [false, true, false, true];

// no longer allowed
// c &= d.into_iter().by_vals();
for (mut c, d) in c.iter_mut().zip(d.into_iter())
{
  *c ^= d;
}
assert_eq!(c, bits![0, 1, 1, 0]);

impl<T> BitField for BitSlice<T>

§Lsb0 Bit-Field Behavior

BitField has no requirements about the in-memory representation or layout of stored integers within a bit-slice, only that round-tripping an integer through a store and a load of the same element suffix on the same bit-slice is idempotent (with respect to sign truncation).

Lsb0 provides a contiguous translation from bit-index to real memory: for any given bit index n and its position P(n), P(n + 1) is P(n) + 1. This allows it to provide batched behavior: since the section of contiguous indices used within an element translates to a section of contiguous bits in real memory, the transaction is always a single shift/mask operation.

Each implemented method contains documentation and examples showing exactly how the abstract integer space is mapped to real memory.

§Lsb0 Little-Endian Integer Loading

This implementation uses the Lsb0 bit-ordering to determine which bits in a partially-occupied memory element contain the contents of an integer to be loaded, using little-endian element ordering.

See the trait method definition for an overview of what element ordering means.

§Signed-Integer Loading

As described in the trait definition, when loading as a signed integer, the most significant bit loaded from memory is sign-extended to the full width of the returned type. In this method, that means the most-significant loaded bit of the final element.

§Examples

In each memory element, the Lsb0 ordering counts indices leftward from the right edge:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let raw = 0b00_10110_0u8;
//           76 54321 0
//              ^ sign bit
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [1 .. 6]
     .load_le::<u8>(),
  0b000_10110,
);
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [1 .. 6]
     .load_le::<i8>(),
  0b111_10110u8 as i8,
);

In bit-slices that span multiple elements, the little-endian element ordering means that the slice index increases with numerical significance:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let raw = [
  0x8_Fu8,
//  7 0
  0x0_1u8,
// 15 8
  0b1111_0010u8,
//       ^ sign bit
// 23       16
];
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [4 .. 20]
     .load_le::<u16>(),
  0x2018u16,
);

Note that while these examples use u8 storage for convenience in displaying the literals, BitField operates identically with any storage type. As most machines use little-endian byte ordering within wider element types, and bitvec exclusively operates on elements, the actual bytes of memory may rapidly start to behave oddly when translating between numeric literals and in-memory representation.

The user guide has a chapter that translates bit indices into memory positions for each combination of <T: BitStore, O: BitOrder>, and may be of additional use when choosing a combination of type parameters and load functions.

§Lsb0 Big-Endian Integer Loading

This implementation uses the Lsb0 bit-ordering to determine which bits in a partially-occupied memory element contain the contents of an integer to be loaded, using big-endian element ordering.

See the trait method definition for an overview of what element ordering means.

§Signed-Integer Loading

As described in the trait definition, when loading as a signed integer, the most significant bit loaded from memory is sign-extended to the full width of the returned type. In this method, that means that the most-significant bit of the first element.

§Examples

In each memory element, the Lsb0 ordering counts indices leftward from the right edge:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let raw = 0b00_10110_0u8;
//           76 54321 0
//              ^ sign bit
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [1 .. 6]
     .load_be::<u8>(),
  0b000_10110,
);
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [1 .. 6]
     .load_be::<i8>(),
  0b111_10110u8 as i8,
);

In bit-slices that span multiple elements, the big-endian element ordering means that the slice index increases while numeric significance decreases:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let raw = [
  0b0010_1111u8,
//  ^ sign bit
//  7       0
  0x0_1u8,
// 15 8
  0xF_8u8,
// 23 16
];
assert_eq!(
  raw.view_bits::<Lsb0>()
     [4 .. 20]
     .load_be::<u16>(),
  0x2018u16,
);

Note that while these examples use u8 storage for convenience in displaying the literals, BitField operates identically with any storage type.

§Lsb0 Little-Endian Integer Storing

This implementation uses the Lsb0 bit-ordering to determine which bits in a partially-occupied memory element are used for storage, using little-endian element ordering.

See the trait method definition for an overview of what element ordering means.

§Narrowing Behavior

Integers are truncated from the high end. When storing into a bit-slice of length n, the n least numerically significant bits are stored, and any remaining high bits are ignored.

Be aware of this behavior if you are storing signed integers! The signed integer -14i8 (bit pattern 0b1111_0010u8) will, when stored into and loaded back from a 4-bit slice, become the value 2i8.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut raw = 0u8;
raw.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>()
   [1 .. 6]
   .store_le(22u8);
assert_eq!(raw, 0b00_10110_0);
//                 76 54321 0
raw.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>()
   [1 .. 6]
   .store_le(-10i8);
assert_eq!(raw, 0b00_10110_0);

In bit-slices that span multiple elements, the little-endian element ordering means that the slice index increases with numerical significance:

use bitvec::prelude::*;

let mut raw = [!0u8; 3];
raw.view_bits_mut::<Lsb0>()
   [4 .. 20]
   .store_le(0x2018u16);
assert_eq!(raw, [
  0x8_F,
//  7 0
  0x0_1,
// 15 8
  0xF_2,
// 23 16
]);

Note that while these examples use u8 storage for convenience in displaying the literals, BitField operates identically with any storage type.

impl<T, O> LowerHex for BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore, O: BitOrder,

§Bit-Slice Rendering

This implementation prints the contents of a &BitSlice in one of binary, octal, or hexadecimal. It is important to note that this does not render the raw underlying memory! They render the semantically-ordered contents of the bit-slice as numerals. This distinction matters if you use type parameters that differ from those presumed by your debugger (which is usually <u8, Msb0>).

The output separates the T elements as individual list items, and renders each element as a base- 2, 8, or 16 numeric string. When walking an element, the bits traversed by the bit-slice are considered to be stored in most-significant-bit-first ordering. This means that index [0] is the high bit of the left-most digit, and index [n] is the low bit of the right-most digit, in a given printed word.

In order to render according to expectations of the Arabic numeral system, an element being transcribed is chunked into digits from the least-significant end of its rendered form. This is most noticeable in octal, which will always have a smaller ceiling on the left-most digit in a printed word, while the right-most digit in that word is able to use the full 0 ..= 7 numeral range.

§Examples
use bitvec::prelude::*;

let data = [
  0b000000_10u8,
// digits print LTR
  0b10_001_101,
// significance is computed RTL
  0b01_000000,
];
let bits = &data.view_bits::<Msb0>()[6 .. 18];

assert_eq!(format!("{:b}", bits), "[10, 10001101, 01]");
assert_eq!(format!("{:o}", bits), "[2, 215, 1]");
assert_eq!(format!("{:X}", bits), "[2, 8D, 1]");

The {:#} format modifier causes the standard 0b, 0o, or 0x prefix to be applied to each printed word. The other format specifiers are not interpreted by this implementation, and apply to the entire rendered text, not to individual words.

fn fmt(&self, fmt: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result<(), Error>

Tests if two BitSlices are semantically — not representationally — equal.

It is valid to compare slices of different ordering or memory types.

The equality condition requires that they have the same length and that at each index, the two slices have the same bit value.

Compares two BitSlices by semantic — not representational — ordering.

The comparison sorts by testing at each index if one slice has a high bit where the other has a low. At the first index where the slices differ, the slice with the high bit is greater. If the slices are equal until at least one terminates, then they are compared by length.

They render the semantically-ordered contents of the bit-slice as numerals. This distinction matters if you use type parameters that differ from those presumed by your debugger (which is usually <u8, Msb0>).

The output separates the T elements as individual list items, and renders each element as a base- 2, 8, or 16 numeric string.

In order to render according to expectations of the Arabic numeral system, an element being transcribed is chunked into digits from the least-significant end of its rendered form. This is most noticeable in octal, which will always have a smaller ceiling on the left-most digit in a printed word, while the right-most digit in that word is able to use the full 0 ..= 7 numeral range.

impl<T, O> Send for BitSlice<T, O>
where T: BitStore + Sync, O: BitOrder,

§Bit-Slice Thread Safety

This allows bit-slice references to be moved across thread boundaries only when the underlying T element can tolerate concurrency.

All BitSlice references, shared or exclusive, are only threadsafe if the T element type is Send, because any given bit-slice reference may only have partial control of a memory element that is also being shared by a bit-slice reference on another thread. As such, this is never implemented for Cell<U>, but always implemented for AtomicU and U for a given unsigned integer type U.

Atomic integers safely handle concurrent writes, cells do not allow concurrency at all, so the only missing piece is &mut BitSlice<_, U: Unsigned>. This is handled by the aliasing system that the mutable splitters employ: a mutable reference to an unsynchronized bit-slice can only cross threads when no other handle is able to exist to the elements it governs. Splitting a mutable bit-slice causes the split halves to change over to either atomics or cells, so concurrency is either safe or impossible.
