clircle 0.6.1

//! The `clircle` crate helps you detect IO circles in your CLI applications.
//!
//! Imagine you want to read data from a couple of files and output something according to the
//! contents of these files. If the user redirects the output of your program to one of the input
//! files, you might end up in an infinite circle of reading and writing.
//!
//! The crate provides the struct `Identifier` which is a platform dependent type alias, so that
//! you can use it on all platforms and do not need to introduce any conditional compilation
//! yourself. `Identifier` implements the `Clircle` trait, which is where you should look for the
//! public functionality.
//!
//! The `Clircle` trait is implemented on both of these structs and requires `TryFrom` for the
//! `clircle::Stdio` enum and for `File`, so that all possible inputs can be represented as an
//! `Identifier`. Additionally, there are `unsafe` methods for each specific implementation, but
//! they are not recommended to use.
//! Finally, `Clircle` is a subtrait of `Eq`, which allows checking if two `Identifier`s point to
//! the same file, even if they don't conflict. If you only need this last feature, you should
//! use [`same-file`](https://crates.io/crates/same-file) instead of this crate.
//!
//! ## Examples
//!
//! To check if two `Identifier`s conflict, use
//! `Clircle::surely_conflicts_with`:
//!
//! ```rust,no_run
//! # fn example() -> Option<()> {
//! # use clircle::{Identifier, Clircle, Stdio::{Stdin, Stdout}};
//! # use std::convert::TryFrom;
//! let stdin = Identifier::stdin()?;
//! let stdout = Identifier::stdout()?;
//!
//! if stdin.surely_conflicts_with(&stdout) {
//!     eprintln!("stdin and stdout are conflicting!");
//! }
//! # Some(())
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! On Linux, the above snippet could be used to detect `cat < x > x`, while allowing just
//! `cat`, although stdin and stdout are pointing to the same pty in both cases. On Windows, this
//! code will not print anything, because the same operation is safe there.
