This "get" is useless noise and was copied from FixedBufferWriter.
Since this API has not yet landed in a release, now is a good time
to make the breaking change to fix this.
Don't see why byte returned from specialPeek needs to be shifted by
remaining_needed_bits.
I believe that decision in specialPeek should be done on the number of
the remaining bits not of the content of that bits.
Some test result are changed, but they are now consistent with the
original state as found in:
5f790464b0/lib/std/compress/flate/Decompress.zig
Changing Bits from usize to u32 or u64 now returns same results.
* flate: simplify peekBitsEnding
`peekBits` returns at most asked number of bits. Fails with EndOfStream
when there are no available bits. If there are less bits available than
asked still returns that available bits.
Hopefully this change better reflects intention. On first input stream
peek error we break the loop.
if I remove the last input byte from "don't read past deflate stream's
end" (on master branch), the test fails with error.EndOfStream. what,
then, is it supposed to be testing?
I think it would be better if this invisible doc comments is top-level
doc comments rather than doc comments. Because it is at the start of a
source file. This makes the doc comments visible.
The compiler actually doesn't need any functional changes for this: Sema
does reification based on the tag indices of `std.builtin.Type` already!
So, no zig1.wasm update is necessary.
This change is necessary to disallow name clashes between fields and
decls on a type, which is a prerequisite of #9938.
fill(0) will fill all bytes in bit reader. If bit reader is aligned to
the byte, as it is at the end of the stream this ensures no overshoot
when reading footer. Footer is 4 bytes (zlib) or 8 bytes (gzip). For
zlib we will use 4 bytes BitReader and 8 for gzip. After align and fill
we will read those bytes and leave BitReader empty after that.
