Expand description

A mutable memory location with dynamically checked borrow rules that can be used inside of a garbage-collected pointer.

This object is a RefCell that can be used inside of a Gc<T>.

Implementations

Creates a new GcCell containing value.

Consumes the GcCell, returning the wrapped value.

Immutably borrows the wrapped value.

The borrow lasts until the returned GcCellRef exits scope. Multiple immutable borrows can be taken out at the same time.

Panics

Panics if the value is currently mutably borrowed.

Mutably borrows the wrapped value.

The borrow lasts until the returned GcCellRefMut exits scope. The value cannot be borrowed while this borrow is active.

Panics

Panics if the value is currently borrowed.

Immutably borrows the wrapped value, returning an error if the value is currently mutably borrowed.

The borrow lasts until the returned GcCellRef exits scope. Multiple immutable borrows can be taken out at the same time.

This is the non-panicking variant of borrow.

Examples
use gc::GcCell;

let c = GcCell::new(5);

{
    let m = c.borrow_mut();
    assert!(c.try_borrow().is_err());
}

{
    let m = c.borrow();
    assert!(c.try_borrow().is_ok());
}

Mutably borrows the wrapped value, returning an error if the value is currently borrowed.

The borrow lasts until the returned GcCellRefMut exits scope. The value cannot be borrowed while this borrow is active.

This is the non-panicking variant of borrow_mut.

Examples
use gc::GcCell;

let c = GcCell::new(5);

{
    let m = c.borrow();
    assert!(c.try_borrow_mut().is_err());
}

assert!(c.try_borrow_mut().is_ok());
