Crate gc

Thread-local garbage-collected boxes (The Gc<T> type).

The Gc<T> type provides shared ownership of an immutable value. It is marked as non-sendable because the garbage collection only occurs thread-locally.

Macros

• custom_trace
  This rule implements the trace method.
• unsafe_empty_trace
  This rule implements the trace methods with empty implementations.

Structs

• BorrowError
  An error returned by GcCell::try_borrow.
• BorrowMutError
  An error returned by GcCell::try_borrow_mut.
• Gc
  A garbage-collected pointer type over an immutable value.
• GcCell
  A mutable memory location with dynamically checked borrow rules that can be used inside of a garbage-collected pointer.
• GcCellRef
  A wrapper type for an immutably borrowed value from a GcCell<T>.
• GcCellRefMut
  A wrapper type for a mutably borrowed value from a GcCell<T>.

Traits

• Finalize
  The Finalize trait, which needs to be implemented on garbage-collected objects to define finalization logic.
• Trace
  The Trace trait, which needs to be implemented on garbage-collected objects.

Functions

• finalizer_safe
• force_collect
  Immediately triggers a garbage collection on the current thread.
