//! Emulates variadic argument lists (via tuples), related to functions and signals.

//
// Could be generalized with R return type, and not special-casing `self`. But keep simple until actually needed.

/// Trait that is implemented for functions that can be connected to signals.
///
/// This is used in [`ConnectBuilder`](crate::obj::signal::connect_builder::ConnectBuilder).
/// There are three variations of the `C` (class instance) parameter:
/// - `()` for global and associated ("static") functions.
/// - `&C` for `&self` methods.
/// - `&mut C` for `&mut self` methods.
///
/// See also [Signals](https://godot-rust.github.io/book/register/signals.html) in the book.
///
/// # Usage as a bound
/// To write generic code that handles different functions and forwards them to [`TypedSignal`] and [`ConnectBuilder`] APIs,
/// you have to use `SignalReceiver` in combination with [`IndirectSignalReceiver`]. Consult the docs of the latter for elaboration.
///
/// [`TypedSignal`]: crate::obj::signal::TypedSignal
/// [`ConnectBuilder`]: crate::obj::signal::ConnectBuilder
///
/// # Hidden `impls` in this doc
/// To keep this documentation readable, we only document one variant of each `impl SignalReceiver`: arbitrarily the one with three parameters
/// `(P0, P1, P2)`. Keep this in mind when looking at a concrete signature.
pub trait SignalReceiver<C, Ps>: 'static {
    /// Invoke the receiver on the given instance (possibly `()`) with `params`.
    fn call(&mut self, maybe_instance: C, params: Ps);
}

// Next-gen trait solver should allow for type inference in closures, when function traits are involved, without using identity struct
// and other hacks. Since `IndirectSignalReceiver` is just a view, it should be drop-in replacement.
/// A special "identity struct" which enables type inference while specifying various closures for connections.
///
/// If you want to write generic code that can handle different functions and forward them to [`TypedSignal`] and [`ConnectBuilder`] APIs,
/// you have to use [`SignalReceiver`] in combination with this type. Please check its documentation for a detailed explanation.
///
/// [`TypedSignal`]: crate::obj::signal::TypedSignal
/// [`ConnectBuilder`]: crate::obj::signal::ConnectBuilder
///
/// # Background
///
/// Individual `connect*` methods on `TypedSignal` and `ConnectBuilder` use the `SignalReceiver` trait as a bound.  \
/// **In addition to that**, they have a rather complex bound involving [`IndirectSignalReceiver`]:
///
/// ```no_run
/// # use godot::signal::{IndirectSignalReceiver, SignalReceiver};
/// # use godot_core::meta::InParamTuple;
/// # use godot_core::obj::WithSignals;
/// # struct TypedSignal<'c, C: WithSignals, Ps> { _phantom: std::marker::PhantomData<&'c (C, Ps)> }
/// impl<C: WithSignals, Ps: InParamTuple + 'static> TypedSignal<'_, C, Ps> {
///     pub fn connect<F>(&self, mut function: F)
///     where
///         for<'c_rcv> F: SignalReceiver<(), Ps> + 'static,
///         for<'c_rcv> IndirectSignalReceiver<'c_rcv, (), Ps, F>: From<&'c_rcv mut F>,
///     { /* ... */ }
/// }
/// ```
///
/// This second bound is necessary because rustc cannot infer parameter types in closures, when dealing with `Fn/FnMut/FnOnce` traits abstracted
/// behind another trait (in our case [`SignalReceiver`]). Without inference, it wouldn't be reliably possible to pass `|this, arg| { ... }`
/// closures and would require the more verbose `|this: &mut MyClass, arg: GString| { ... }` syntax.
///
/// To make type inference work in such cases, we need to specify concrete type, such as `FnMut(...) -> R` or
/// `<&mut F as Into<IndirectSignalReceiver<'_, MyClass, (Param0, Param1), Func>>>`. The ~~dirty hack~~ clever trick used here is to "smuggle" a
/// concrete `Fn*` trait through `IndirectSignalReceiver`. This forces rustc to resolve the concrete `Fn*` type.
///
/// Prior designs included declarative macros to generate all `connect*` functions with direct `Fn*` bounds (not through `SignalReceiver`).
/// This works well, too, but prevents users from extending the functionality through generic programming -- they'd need to use macros, too.
///
/// # Usage within `connect*` style methods
/// When using the trait bounds as described above, you can access the actual function in the following way:
///
/// ```no_run
/// # use godot::signal::{IndirectSignalReceiver, SignalReceiver};
/// # let mut function = || {};
/// # let args = ();
/// IndirectSignalReceiver::from(&mut function)
///     .function()
///     .call((), args);
/// ```
///
/// # Hidden `impls` in this doc
/// To keep this documentation readable, we only document one variant of each `impl From<F>`: arbitrarily the one with three parameters
/// `(P0, P1, P2)`. Keep this in mind when looking at a concrete signature.
