openssh_key.pascal_style_byte_stream.PascalStyleFormatInstructionStringLengthSize

class openssh_key.pascal_style_byte_stream.PascalStyleFormatInstructionStringLengthSize(format_instruction: openssh_key.pascal_style_byte_stream.PascalStyleFormatInstruction, string_length_size: int)

Bases: NamedTuple

A format instruction for a variable-length value, and the size, in bytes, of the unsigned int prefix describing the value’s length in bytes.

Example

Reading b'\x00\x00\x03abc' with a format_instruction of PascalStyleFormatInstruction.STRING and a string_length_size of 3 yields a str, viz. 'abc'.
