Struct capnp::introspect::Type

pub struct Type { /* private fields */ }

A description of a Cap’n Proto type. The representation is optimized to avoid heap allocation.

To examine a Type, you should call the which() method.

Implementations

impl Type

pub fn list_of(element_type: Type) -> Self

Constructs a new Type that is a list wrapping some other Type.

pub fn which(&self) -> TypeVariant

Unfolds a single layer of the Type, to allow for pattern matching.

pub fn is_pointer_type(&self) -> bool

Is the Type a pointer type?

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Type

fn clone(&self) -> Type

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl From<TypeVariant> for Type

fn from(tv: TypeVariant) -> Type

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl PartialEq for Type

fn eq(&self, other: &Type) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Eq for Type
