Trait PortReader 

pub trait PortReader {
    // Required methods
    fn port(&self, name: &str) -> Option<Value>;
    fn as_any(&self) -> &dyn Any;
}

The optional uniform read accessor a generated native ports struct implements so a consumer that does not downcast can still read ports by name. Reading a statically-typed field this way clones/boxes ONLY that one field into a Value on demand (no Vec, no eager boxing of every port) — a hot-path consumer downcasts (as_any) and reads the typed fields directly.

Required Methods

fn port(&self, name: &str) -> Option<Value>

The Value for a port name, and whether it is a declared port of this node.

fn as_any(&self) -> &dyn Any

Downcast hook for a consumer that reads the concrete generated struct with zero boxing.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
