Function write_u64

src/encode.rs:359–364

Encodes and attempts to write an `u64` value strictly as a 9-byte sequence into the given write. The first byte becomes the marker and the others will represent the data itself. Note, that this function will encode the given value in 9-byte sequence no matter what, even if the value can be represented using single byte as a positive fixnum. If you need to fit the given buffer efficiently use `w

(wr: &mut W, val: u64)

/// This function will return `ValueWriteError` on any I/O error occurred while writing either the
/// marker or the data, except the EINTR, which is handled internally.
pub fn write_u64<W>(wr: &mut W, val: u64) -> Result<(), ValueWriteError>
    where W: Write
{
    try!(write_marker(wr, Marker::U64));
    write_data_u64(wr, val)
}

/// Encodes and attempts to write an `i8` value as a 2-byte sequence into the given write.
