#![cfg_attr(not(doctest), no_std)]

//! Helper trait to create instances of large structs with default value on heap directly
//! without going through stack.
//!
//! Similar to the unstable `box` syntax,
//! it semantically doesn't require creating the whole struct on stack then moving to heap,
//! and thus unlike [`copyless`][copyless] or [`boxext`][boxext],
//! it doesn't rely on optimization to eliminate building the struct on stack,
//! which may still face stack overflow on debug build when creating large struct.
//!
//! [copyless]: https://crates.io/crates/copyless
//! [boxext]: https://crates.io/crates/boxext
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```
//! use default_boxed::DefaultBoxed;
//!
//! #[derive(DefaultBoxed)]
//! struct Foo {
//!     a: Bar,
//!     b: [Bar; 1024 * 1024],
//!     c: [u32; 1024 * 1024],
//! }
//!
//! struct Bar(u16);
//! impl Default for Bar {
//!     fn default() -> Bar {
//!         Bar(29)
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! let foo = Foo::default_boxed();
//! assert_eq!(foo.a.0, 29);
//! assert_eq!(foo.b[128 * 1024].0, 29);
//! assert_eq!(foo.c[256 * 1024], 0);
//!
//! let foo_arr = Foo::default_boxed_array::<16>();
//! assert_eq!(foo_arr[15].a.0, 29);
//! ```
