/*! For Rust-to-Rust ffi,with a focus on creating libraries loaded at program startup. This library allows defining Rust libraries that can be loaded at runtime, even if they were built with a different Rust version than the crate that depends on it, # Features Currently this library has these features: - ffi-safe equivalent of trait objects for any combination of a selection of traits. - Provides ffi-safe alternatives to standard library types.. - Provides the `StableAbi` trait for asserting that types are ffi-safe. - Checking at load-time that the types in the dynamic library have the expected layout, allowing for semver compatible changes while checking the layout of types. - Provides the `StableAbi` derive macro to both assert that the type is ffi compatible, and to get the layout of the type at runtime to check that it is still compatible. # Examples For **examples** of using `abi_stable` you can look at the abi_stable_example_* crates, in the repository for this crate. # Glossary `interface crate`:the crate that declares the public functions and types that are necessary to load the library at runtime. `ìmplementation crate`:A crate that implements all the functions in the interface crate. `user crate`:A crate that depends on an `interface crate` and loads 1 or more `ìmplementation crate`s for it. `module`:refers to a struct of function pointers and other static values, and implement the ModuleTrait trait. These are declared in the `interface crate`,exported in the `implementation crate`, and loaded in the `user crate`. # Rust-to-Rust FFI guidelines. Types must implement StableAbi to be safely passed through the FFI boundary, which can be done using the StableAbi derive macro. These are the 2 kinds of types passed through FFI: - Value kind: The layout of types passed by value must not change in a minor version. This is the default kind when deriving StableAbi. - Opaque kind: Types wrapped in `VirtualWrapper<SomePointer<OpaqueType<Interface>>>`, whose layout can change in any version of the library, and can only be unwrapped back to the original type in the dynamic library/binary that created it. ### Declaring enums Adding variants or fields to a variant is disallowed in minor versions. To represent non-exhaustive enums without fields it is recommended using structs and associated constants so that it is not UB to keep adding field-less variants in minor versions. */ #![allow(unused_unsafe)] #![warn(rust_2018_idioms)] #[macro_use] extern crate serde_derive; #[macro_use(StableAbi)] extern crate abi_stable_derive; #[doc(inline)] pub use abi_stable_derive::StableAbi; #[doc(inline)] pub use abi_stable_derive::{ mangle_library_getter, export_sabi_module, }; #[macro_use] mod impls; #[macro_use] mod macros; #[cfg(test)] #[macro_use] mod test_utils; #[macro_use] pub mod traits; #[macro_use] pub mod abi_stability; // pub mod cabi_type; pub mod erased_types; // pub mod immovable_wrapper; pub mod library; pub mod ignored_wrapper; pub mod marker_type; pub mod pointer_trait; #[doc(hidden)] pub mod return_value_equality; #[doc(hidden)] pub mod derive_macro_reexports; pub mod std_types; pub mod utils; pub mod lazy_static_ref; pub mod version; #[cfg(test)] #[macro_use] mod test_macros; #[cfg(test)] mod layout_tests; /** Type-level booleans.
