reven2.types._void.VoidType

class documentation

class VoidType(_Type):

Special type that represents the void type.

Method	`__eq__`	Compares the instance for equality with an object.
Method	`__hash__`	Returns the hash for this value.
Method	`__ne__`	Compares the instance for equality with an object.
Method	`__str__`	Returns the nicely printable string representation of this instance.
Method	`as_bytes`	Cast this type to a `RawBuffer` so that it can be read as a series of bytes.
Method	`_construct_type`	Return the underlying `construct` instance

Inherited from Type:

Method	`description`	The short description of this type.
Method	`is_context_sensitive`	Whether the context argument needed by some methods actually has an effect.
Method	`parse`	Parses the value of an instance of this type from a raw buffer, possibly depending on the context.
Method	`size_bytes`	The minimal number of bytes necessary to hold an instance of this type, possibly depending on the context.
Method	`to_bytes`	Build a byte buffer from a value of this type.
Method	`_resolve`	Uses the resolver to return a resolved version of the type, if possible.

def __eq__(self, o):

Compares the instance for equality with an object.

def __hash__(self):

Returns the hash for this value.

Returns
`int`	Undocumented

def __ne__(self, o):

Compares the instance for equality with an object.

def __str__(self):

Returns the nicely printable string representation of this instance.

Returns
`str`	Undocumented

def as_bytes(self, size):

Cast this type to a RawBuffer so that it can be read as a series of bytes.

Information

Parameters
size:`int`	the size in bytes of the desired RawBuffer. Since the `VoidType` is not aware of the size the type should have, this parameter allows to specify it.
Returns
`_RawBuffer`	Undocumented

def _construct_type(self, context=None):

overrides reven2.types._type.Type._construct_type

Return the underlying construct instance
