pub trait AsyncSeek {
fn poll_seek(
self: Pin<&mut Self>,
cx: &mut Context<'_>,
pos: SeekFrom
) -> Poll<Result<u64, Error>>;
}Expand description
Seek bytes asynchronously.
This trait is analogous to the std::io::Seek trait, but integrates
with the asynchronous task system. In particular, the poll_seek
method, unlike Seek::seek, will automatically queue the current task
for wakeup and return if data is not yet available, rather than blocking
the calling thread.
Required methods
Attempt to seek to an offset, in bytes, in a stream.
A seek beyond the end of a stream is allowed, but behavior is defined by the implementation.
If the seek operation completed successfully,
this method returns the new position from the start of the stream.
That position can be used later with SeekFrom::Start.
Errors
Seeking to a negative offset is considered an error.
Implementation
This function may not return errors of kind WouldBlock or
Interrupted. Implementations must convert WouldBlock into
Poll::Pending and either internally retry or convert
Interrupted into another error kind.
