PacketProcessor
The Swift PacketProcessor
provides a simple, type-safe way of handling structured packets given a data stream.
PacketProcessor
handles the details of buffer management when reading a data stream. Callers need only push newly received data to the PacketProcessor
. The correct handlers for the appropriately typed packet will be called when appropriate.
Packet definitions must include rules for validating the packet and returning the number of data elements consumed by the packet. See DataPacket
and StringPacket
.
Streams can have a base collection type of String
or Data
by initializing as PacketProcessor<String>
or PacketProcessor<Data>
.
