//! Optional message field wrapper that provides ergonomic access.
//!
//! `MessageField<T>` replaces `Option<Box<T>>` for optional/singular message
//! fields. It dereferences to a default instance when unset, avoiding the
//! `Option<Box<M>>` unwrapping ceremony that plagues prost-generated code.

use alloc::boxed::Box;
use core::fmt;
use core::ops::Deref;

/// Provides access to a lazily-initialized, immutable default instance of a
/// type.
///
/// Types that implement this trait can be used as the target of
/// [`MessageField<T>`] dereferences when the field is unset. It is also a
/// supertrait of [`Message`](crate::Message), so every generated message type
/// must implement it.
///
/// This is an `unsafe trait` because the compiler cannot verify the two
/// invariants described below. **Codegen handles this automatically** — you
/// only need to write `unsafe impl` when manually implementing
/// [`Message`](crate::Message) for a hand-crafted type.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// An implementation must uphold two invariants:
///
/// ## 1. Liveness
///
/// The returned reference must be valid for the entire program lifetime (`'static`).
/// The referenced value must never be dropped or moved while any reference to it
/// exists. In practice the instance must reside in a `'static` location — a
/// `static` variable, or heap memory obtained from [`Box::leak`].
///
/// Violating this invariant produces a **dangling reference**, which is
/// undefined behaviour.
///
/// ## 2. Immutability after publication
///
/// Once `default_instance()` has returned a reference, the pointed-to value
/// must never be mutated through any other path for the remainder of the
/// program. Shared Rust references (`&T`) require that the underlying data is
/// not modified while the reference exists; because the returned
/// `&'static Self` may be held indefinitely by any number of callers, the
/// instance must be permanently read-only after its first publication.
///
/// Violating this invariant is a **data race** (if mutation is unsynchronized)
/// or a **broken aliasing invariant** (if mutation is synchronized but the
/// shared reference is still live). Both are undefined behaviour.
///
/// # Correct implementation
///
/// The instance **must** be stored in a `static` declared inside a **concrete**
/// `impl` block, not inside a generic function. A `static` inside a generic
/// function is not monomorphized — every type instantiation of that function
/// shares the same storage location — which would allow an instance of type
/// `A` to be aliased as type `B`. This is unsound regardless of how the pointer
/// is obtained.
///
/// The recommended pattern — and what codegen generates — uses
/// `::buffa::__private::OnceBox` (a re-export of [`once_cell::race::OnceBox`]),
/// which works in both `no_std + alloc` and
/// `std` environments:
///
/// ```rust,ignore
/// unsafe impl DefaultInstance for MyMessage {
///     fn default_instance() -> &'static Self {
///         static VALUE: ::buffa::__private::OnceBox<MyMessage>
///             = ::buffa::__private::OnceBox::new();
///         VALUE.get_or_init(|| ::alloc::boxed::Box::new(MyMessage::default()))
///     }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// Note that the function body contains no `unsafe` blocks. The `unsafe`
/// keyword appears only on the `impl` header, precisely scoping where the
/// safety contract is acknowledged.
///
/// In `std`-only environments [`std::sync::OnceLock`] is also available and
/// avoids the `alloc::boxed::Box` wrapping:
///
/// ```rust,ignore
/// unsafe impl DefaultInstance for MyMessage {
///     fn default_instance() -> &'static Self {
///         static VALUE: std::sync::OnceLock<MyMessage> = std::sync::OnceLock::new();
///         VALUE.get_or_init(MyMessage::default)
///     }
/// }
/// ```
pub unsafe trait DefaultInstance: Default + 'static {
    /// Return a reference to the single default instance of this type.
    fn default_instance() -> &'static Self;
}

/// A wrapper for optional message fields that provides transparent access
/// to a default instance when the field is not set.
///
/// This type is used for singular message fields in generated code. It avoids
/// the ergonomic pain of `Option<Box<M>>` while still being heap-allocated
/// only when set (no allocation for unset fields).
///
/// # Access patterns
///
/// ```rust,ignore
/// // Reading through an unset field gives the default:
/// let msg = Outer::default();
/// assert_eq!(msg.inner.name, "");  // No unwrap needed, derefs to default
///
/// // Check if set:
/// if msg.inner.is_set() { ... }
///
/// // Set a value:
/// msg.inner = MessageField::some(Inner { name: "hello".into(), ..Default::default() });
///
/// // Clear:
/// msg.inner = MessageField::none();
/// ```
