Trait base::WriteZeroesAt

pub trait WriteZeroesAt {
    // Required method
    fn write_zeroes_at(&self, offset: u64, length: usize) -> Result<usize>;

    // Provided method
    fn write_zeroes_all_at(&self, offset: u64, length: usize) -> Result<()> { ... }
}

A trait for writing zeroes to an arbitrary position in a file.

Required Methods

fn write_zeroes_at(&self, offset: u64, length: usize) -> Result<usize>

Write up to length bytes of zeroes starting at offset, returning how many bytes were written.

Provided Methods

fn write_zeroes_all_at(&self, offset: u64, length: usize) -> Result<()>

Write zeroes starting at offset until length bytes have been written.

This method will continuously call write_zeroes_at until the requested length is satisfied or an error is encountered.
