Struct lzw::Encoder

pub struct Encoder<W: BitWriter> {
    // some fields omitted
}

[−] Expand description

LZW encoder using the algorithm of GIF files.

Methods

impl<W: BitWriter> Encoder<W>

fn new(w: W, min_code_size: u8) -> Result<Encoder<W>>[−]

Creates a new LZW encoder.

Note: If min_code_size < 8 then Self::encode_bytes might panic when the supplied data containts values that exceed 1 << min_code_size.

fn encode_bytes(&mut self, bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<()>[−]

Compresses bytes and writes the result into the writer.

Panics

This function might panic if any of the input bytes exceeds 1 << min_code_size. This cannot happen if min_code_size >= 8.

Trait Implementations

impl<W: BitWriter> Drop for Encoder<W>

fn drop(&mut self)[−]

A method called when the value goes out of scope.
