# 1.36.0[−][src]Struct std::io::IoSlice

    #[repr(transparent)]
    pub struct IoSlice<'a>(_);

A buffer type used with `Write::write_vectored`.

It is semantically a wrapper around an `&[u8]`, but is guaranteed to be ABI compatible with the `iovec` type on Unix platforms and `WSABUF` on Windows.

## Methods

### `impl<'a> IoSlice<'a>`[src]

#### `pub fn new(buf: &'a [u8]) -> IoSlice<'a>`[src]

Creates a new `IoSlice` wrapping a byte slice.

# Panics

Panics on Windows if the slice is larger than 4GB.

## Methods from Deref<Target = [u8]>

#### `pub fn len(&self) -> usize` 1.0.0[src]

Returns the number of elements in the slice.

# Examples

    let a = [1, 2, 3];
    assert_eq!(a.len(), 3);Run

#### `pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool` 1.0.0[src]

Returns `true` if the slice has a length of 0.

# Examples

    let a = [1, 2, 3];
    assert!(!a.is_empty());Run

#### `pub fn first(&self) -> Option<&T>`1.0.0[src]

Returns the first element of the slice, or `None` if it is empty.

# Examples

    let v = [10, 40, 30];
    assert_eq!(Some(&10), v.first());

    let w: &[i32] = &[];
    assert_eq!(None, w.first());Run

#### `pub fn split_first(&self) -> Option<(&T, &[T])>`1.5.0[src]

Returns the first and all the rest of the elements of the slice, or `None` if it is empty.

# Examples

    let x = &[0, 1, 2];

    if let Some((first, elements)) = x.split_first() {
        assert_eq!(first, &0);
        assert_eq!(elements, &[1, 2]);
    }Run

#### `pub fn split_last(&self) -> Option<(&T, &[T])>`1.5.0[src]

Returns the last and all the rest of the elements of the slice, or `None` if it is empty.

# Examples

    let x = &[0, 1, 2];

    if let Some((last, elements)) = x.split_last() {
        assert_eq!(last, &2);
        assert_eq!(elements, &[0, 1]);
    }Run

#### `pub fn last(&self) -> Option<&T>`1.0.0[src]

Returns the last element of the slice, or `None` if it is empty.

# Examples

    let v = [10, 40, 30];
    assert_eq!(Some(&30), v.last());

    let w: &[i32] = &[];
    assert_eq!(None, w.last());Run

#### `pub fn get<I>(&self, index: I) -> Option<&<I as SliceIndex<[T]>>::Output> where
I: SliceIndex<[T]>,` 1.0.0[src]

Returns a reference to an element or subslice depending on the type of index.

- If given a position, returns a reference to the element at that position or `None` if out of bounds.
- If given a range, returns the subslice corresponding to that range, or `None` if out of bounds.

# Examples

    let v = [10, 40, 30];
    assert_eq!(Some(&40), v.get(1));
    assert_eq!(Some(&[10, 40][..]), v.get(0..2));
    assert_eq!(None, v.get(3));
    assert_eq!(None, v.get(0..4));Run

#### `pub unsafe fn get_unchecked<I>(
&self,
index: I
) -> &<I as SliceIndex<[T]>>::Output where
I: SliceIndex<[T]>,` 1.0.0[src]

Returns a reference to an element or subslice, without doing bounds checking.

This is generally not recommended, use with caution! For a safe alternative see `get`.

# Examples

    let x = &[1, 2, 4];

    unsafe {
        assert_eq!(x.get_unchecked(1), &2);
    }Run

#### `pub const fn as_ptr(&self) -> *const T` 1.0.0[src]

Returns a raw pointer to the slice's buffer.

The caller must ensure that the slice outlives the pointer this function returns, or else it will end up pointing to garbage.

The caller must also ensure that the memory the pointer (non-transitively) points to is never written to (except inside an `UnsafeCell`) using this pointer or any pointer derived from it. If you need to mutate the contents of the slice, use `as_mut_ptr`.

Modifying the container referenced by this slice may cause its buffer to be reallocated, which would also make any pointers to it invalid.

# Examples

    let x = &[1, 2, 4];
    let x_ptr = x.as_ptr();

    unsafe {
        for i in 0..x.len() {
            assert_eq!(x.get_unchecked(i), &*x_ptr.add(i));
        }
    }Run

`impl<'a, T> Iterator for Windows<'a, T> type Item = &'a [T];`
`pub fn windows(&self, size: usize) -> Windows<T>`1.0.0[src]

Returns an iterator over all contiguous windows of length `size`. The windows overlap. If the slice is shorter than `size`, the iterator returns no values.

# Panics

Panics if `size` is 0.

# Examples

`impl<'a, T> Iterator for Chunks<'a, T> type Item = &'a [T];`
`pub fn chunks(&self, chunk_size: usize) -> Chunks<T>`1.0.0[src]

Returns an iterator over `chunk_size` elements of the slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the slice.

The chunks are slices and do not overlap. If `chunk_size` does not divide the length of the slice, then the last chunk will not have length `chunk_size`.

See `chunks_exact` for a variant of this iterator that returns chunks of always exactly `chunk_size` elements, and `rchunks` for the same iterator but starting at the end of the slice of the slice.

# Panics

Panics if `chunk_size` is 0.

# Examples

`impl<'a, T> Iterator for ChunksExact<'a, T> type Item = &'a [T];`
`pub fn chunks_exact(&self, chunk_size: usize) -> ChunksExact<T>`1.31.0[src]

Returns an iterator over `chunk_size` elements of the slice at a time, starting at the beginning of the slice.

The chunks are slices and do not overlap. If `chunk_size` does not divide the length of the slice, then the last up to `chunk_size-1` elements will be omitted and can be retrieved from the `remainder` function of the iterator.

Due to each chunk having exactly `chunk_size` elements, the compiler can often optimize the resulting code better than in the case of `chunks`.

See `chunks` for a variant of this iterator that also returns the remainder as a smaller chunk, and `rchunks_exact` for the same iterator but starting at the end of the slice.

# Panics

Panics if `chunk_size` is 0.

# Examples

    let slice = ['l', 'o', 'r', 'e', 'm'];
    let mut iter = slice.chunks_exact(2);

#### `pub fn split_at(&self, mid: usize) -> (&[T], &[T])`1.0.0[src]

Divides one slice into two at an index.

The first will contain all indices from `[0, mid)` (excluding the index `mid` itself) and the second will contain all indices from `[mid, len)` (excluding the index `len` itself).

`pub fn split<F>(&self, pred: F) -> Split<T, F> where
F: FnMut(&T) -> bool,` 1.0.0[src]

Returns an iterator over subslices separated by elements that match `pred`. The matched element is not contained in the subslices.

# Examples

    let slice = [10, 40, 33, 20];
    let mut iter = slice.split(|num| num % 3 == 0);

    assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &[10, 40]);
    assert_eq!(iter.next().unwrap(), &[20]);
    assert!(iter.next().is_none());Run

If the first element is matched, an empty slice will be the first item returned by the iterator. Similarly, if the last element in the slice is matched, an empty slice will be the last item returned by the iterator:

    let slice = [10, 40, 33];

#### `pub fn binary_search(&self, x: &T) -> Result<usize, usize> where
T: Ord,` 1.0.0[src]

Binary searches this sorted slice for a given element.

If the value is found then `Result::Ok` is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then `Result::Err` is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

# Examples

Looks up a series of four elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in `[1, 4]`.

F: FnMut(&'a T) -> Ordering,` 1.0.0[src]

Binary searches this sorted slice with a comparator function.

The comparator function should implement an order consistent with the sort order of the underlying slice, returning an order code that indicates whether its argument is `Less`, `Equal` or `Greater` the desired target.

If the value is found then `Result::Ok` is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then `Result::Err` is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

# Examples

Binary searches this sorted slice with a key extraction function.

Assumes that the slice is sorted by the key, for instance with `sort_by_key` using the same key extraction function.

If the value is found then `Result::Ok` is returned, containing the index of the matching element. If there are multiple matches, then any one of the matches could be returned. If the value is not found then `Result::Err` is returned, containing the index where a matching element could be inserted while maintaining sorted order.

# Examples

Looks up a series of four elements in a slice of pairs sorted by their second elements. The first is found, with a uniquely determined position; the second and third are not found; the fourth could match any position in `[1, 4]`.

#### `pub unsafe fn align_to<U>(&self) -> (&[T], &[U], &[T])`1.30.0[src]

Transmute the slice to a slice of another type, ensuring alignment of the types is maintained.

This method splits the slice into three distinct slices: prefix, correctly aligned middle slice of a new type, and the suffix slice. The method does a best effort to make the middle slice the greatest length possible for a given type and input slice, but only your algorithm's performance should depend on that, not its correctness.

This method has no purpose when either input element `T` or output element `U` are zero-sized and will return the original slice without splitting anything.

# Safety

This method is essentially a `transmute` with respect to the elements in the returned middle slice, so all the usual caveats pertaining to `transmute::<T, U>` also apply here.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    unsafe {
        let bytes: [u8; 7] = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7];
        let (prefix, shorts, suffix) = bytes.align_to::<u16>();
        // less_efficient_algorithm_for_bytes(prefix);
        // more_efficient_algorithm_for_aligned_shorts(shorts);
        // less_efficient_algorithm_for_bytes(suffix);
    }Run

#### `pub fn is_sorted(&self) -> bool where
T: PartialOrd<T>,` [src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`is_sorted` #53485)

new API

Checks if the elements of this slice are sorted.

That is, for each element `a` and its following element `b`, `a <= b` must hold. If the slice yields exactly zero or one element, `true` is returned.

Note that if `Self::Item` is only `PartialOrd`, but not `Ord`, the above definition implies that this function returns `false` if any two consecutive items are not comparable.

Instead of using `PartialOrd::partial_cmp`, this function uses the given `compare` function to determine the ordering of two elements. Apart from that, it's equivalent to `is_sorted`; see its documentation for more information.

new API

Checks if the elements of this slice are sorted using the given key extraction function.

Instead of comparing the slice's elements directly, this function compares the keys of the elements, as determined by `f`. Apart from that, it's equivalent to `is_sorted`; see its documentation for more information.

# Examples

    #![feature(is_sorted)]

    assert!(["c", "bb", "aaa"].is_sorted_by_key(|s| s.len()));
    assert!(![-2i32, -1, 0, 3].is_sorted_by_key(|n| n.abs()));Run

#### `pub fn is_ascii(&self) -> bool` 1.23.0[src]

Checks if all bytes in this slice are within the ASCII range.

#### `pub fn eq_ignore_ascii_case(&self, other: &[u8]) -> bool` 1.23.0[src]

Checks that two slices are an ASCII case-insensitive match.

Same as `to_ascii_lowercase(a) == to_ascii_lowercase(b)`, but without allocating and copying temporaries.

`pub fn repeat(&self, n: usize) -> Vec<T> where
T: Copy,` [src]

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`repeat_generic_slice` #48784)

it's on str, why not on slice?

Creates a vector by repeating a slice `n` times.

# Panics

This function will panic if the capacity would overflow.

# Examples

Basic usage:

    #![feature(repeat_generic_slice)]

    fn main() {
        assert_eq!([1, 2].repeat(3), vec![1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2]);
    }Run

A panic upon overflow:

    #![feature(repeat_generic_slice)]
    fn main() {
        // this will panic at runtime
        b"0123456789abcdef".repeat(usize::max_value());
    }Run

#### `pub fn concat<Separator>(&self) -> <T as SliceConcat<Separator>>::Output where
Separator: ?Sized,
T: SliceConcat<Separator>,` 1.0.0[src]

Flattens a slice of `T` into a single value `Self::Output`.

# Examples

    assert_eq!(["hello", "world"].concat(), "helloworld");
    assert_eq!([[1, 2], [3, 4]].concat(), [1, 2, 3, 4]);Run

#### `pub fn join<Separator>(
&self,
sep: &Separator
) -> <T as SliceConcat<Separator>>::Output where
Separator: ?Sized,
T: SliceConcat<Separator>,` 1.3.0[src]

Flattens a slice of `T` into a single value `Self::Output`, placing a given separator between each.

# Examples

    assert_eq!(["hello", "world"].join(" "), "hello world");
    assert_eq!([[1, 2], [3, 4]].join(&0), [1, 2, 0, 3, 4]);Run

#### `pub fn connect<Separator>(
&self,
sep: &Separator
) -> <T as SliceConcat<Separator>>::Output where
Separator: ?Sized,
T: SliceConcat<Separator>,` 1.0.0[src]

Deprecated since 1.3.0:

renamed to join

Flattens a slice of `T` into a single value `Self::Output`, placing a given separator between each.

# Examples

    assert_eq!(["hello", "world"].connect(" "), "hello world");
    assert_eq!([[1, 2], [3, 4]].connect(&0), [1, 2, 0, 3, 4]);Run

`impl Write for Vec<u8>`
`pub fn to_ascii_uppercase(&self) -> Vec<u8>`1.23.0[src]

Returns a vector containing a copy of this slice where each byte is mapped to its ASCII upper case equivalent.

ASCII letters 'a' to 'z' are mapped to 'A' to 'Z', but non-ASCII letters are unchanged.

To uppercase the value in-place, use `make_ascii_uppercase`.

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
