Constructor Details

#initialize(*args) ⇒ Object

Structure constructor

Parameters:

  • default_endianness (Symbol)

    Must be one of BinaryAccessor::ENDIANNESS. By default it uses BinaryAccessor::HOST_ENDIANNESS to determine the endianness of the host platform.

  • buffer (String)

    Buffer used to store the structure

  • item_class (Class)

    Class used to instantiate new structure items. Must be StructureItem or one of its subclasses.

Instance Method Details

#append_item(name, bit_size, data_type, array_size = nil, endianness = @default_endianness, overflow = :ERROR) ⇒ StrutureItem

Define an item at the end of the structure. This creates a new instance of the item_class as given in the constructor and adds it to the items hash. It also resizes the buffer to accomodate the new item.

Parameters:

  • name (String)

    Name of the item. Used by the items hash to retrieve the item.

  • bit_size (Integer)

    Bit size of the item in the raw buffer

  • data_type (Symbol)

    Type of data contained by the item. This is dependant on the item_class but by default see StructureItem.

  • array_size (Integer) (defaults to: nil)

    Set to a non nil value if the item is to represented as an array.

  • endianness (Symbol) (defaults to: @default_endianness)

    Endianness of this item. By default the endianness as set in the constructure is used.

  • overflow (Symbol) (defaults to: :ERROR)

    How to handle value overflows. This is dependant on the item_class but by default see StructureItem.

Returns:

  • (StrutureItem)

    The struture item defined

Raises:

  • (ArgumentError)

  return define_item(name, @defined_length_bits, bit_size, data_type, array_size, endianness, overflow)
end

#buffer(copy = true) ⇒ String

Get the buffer used by the structure. The current buffer is copied and thus modifications to the returned buffer will have no effect on the structure items.

#write(name, value, value_type = :RAW, buffer = @buffer) ⇒ Object

Write an item in the structure by name

Parameters:

  • name (Object)

    Name of the item to write

  • value (Object)

    Value based on the item definition. This could be a string, integer, float, or array of values.

  • value_type (Symbol) (defaults to: :RAW)

    Not used. Subclasses should overload this parameter to check whether to perform conversions on the item.

  • buffer (String) (defaults to: @buffer)

    The binary buffer to write the value to

end

#write_item(item, value, value_type = :RAW, buffer = @buffer) ⇒ Object

Write a value to the buffer based on the item definition

Parameters:

  • item (StructureItem)

    Instance of StructureItem or one of its subclasses

  • value (Object)

    Value based on the item definition. This could be a string, integer, float, or array of values.

  • value_type (Symbol) (defaults to: :RAW)

    Not used. Subclasses should overload this parameter to check whether to perform conversions on the item.

  • buffer (String) (defaults to: @buffer)
