Previously it was not possible to construct such instances of
BitVecother than via theDefaulttrait. Using the*_generalmethods, one can construct instances ofBitVecwith arbitraryB. See the examples in the doc comments for the syntax.In particular the
with_capacityfunction is now available for arbitraryB.I'm not certain about the following parts and would like some input or changes by the maintainer:
u32made use of the|=operator (ops::BitOrAssign). I didn't want to change this code, so I addedBitOrAssignas requirement for theBitBlocktrait. By replacinga |= bwith its equivalent forma = a | b, this requirement could be removed.I haven't checked, whether there is a similar situation in other libraries.
