Struct BroadcastMessage 

pub struct BroadcastMessage {
    pub id: Hash,
    pub origin: String,
    pub heads: Vec<Hash>,
    pub ttl: u8,
    pub timestamp: u64,
}

A broadcast message containing head announcements.

Fields

id: Hash

Unique message ID (hash of contents).

origin: String

The replica that originated this message.

heads: Vec<Hash>

Current heads being announced.

ttl: u8

Remaining hops (time-to-live).

timestamp: u64

Logical timestamp when the message was created.

Implementations

impl BroadcastMessage

pub fn new( origin: impl Into<String>, heads: Vec<Hash>, ttl: u8, timestamp: u64, ) -> Self

Create a new broadcast message.

pub fn forward(&self) -> Option<Self>

Create a forwarded copy with decremented TTL.

pub fn is_alive(&self) -> bool

Check if this message should still be forwarded.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for BroadcastMessage

fn clone(&self) -> BroadcastMessage

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for BroadcastMessage

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for BroadcastMessage

fn eq(&self, other: &BroadcastMessage) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
