Xdr-rs-serialize is a library for facilitating the (de)serialization of rust objects into the XDR format.
This library can be added to your project by using cargo to install the xdr-rs-serialize crate.
cargo add xdr-rs-serialize
use xdr_rs_serialize::de::XDRIn;
use xdr_rs_serialize::error::Error;
use xdr_rs_serialize::ser::XDROut;
fn main() -> Result<(), Error> {
let mut byte_buffer = Vec::new();
"Hello world!".to_string().write_xdr(&mut byte_buffer)?;
// Notice that a tuple is returned with the String result at index 0 and
// total bytes read at index 1.
let hello_world: String = String::read_xdr(&mut &byte_buffer)?.0;
println!("{}", hello_world);
Ok(())
}
