Function scolapasta_path::os_string_to_bytes

source · 
pub fn os_string_to_bytes(
    os_string: OsString
) -> Result<Vec<u8>, ConvertBytesError>
Expand description

Convert a platform-specific OsString to a byte vec.

Unsupported platforms fallback to converting through String.

§Examples

let platform_string: OsString = OsString::from("/etc/passwd");
assert_eq!(
    os_string_to_bytes(platform_string),
    Ok(b"/etc/passwd".to_vec())
);

§Errors

On unix-like platforms, this function is infallible.

On Windows, if the given byte slice does not contain valid UTF-8, an error is returned.
