Struct WeakEntity 

pub struct WeakEntity<T> { /* private fields */ }

A weak reference to a entity of the given type.

Implementations

impl<T> WeakEntity<T>

where T: 'static,

pub fn upgrade(&self) -> Option<Entity<T>>

Upgrade this weak entity reference into a strong entity reference

pub fn update<C, R>( &self, cx: &mut C, update: impl FnOnce(&mut T, &mut Context<'_, T>) -> R, ) -> Result<R, Error>

where C: AppContext,

Updates the entity referenced by this handle with the given function if the referenced entity still exists. Returns an error if the entity has been released.

pub fn update_in<C, R>( &self, cx: &mut C, update: impl FnOnce(&mut T, &mut Window, &mut Context<'_, T>) -> R, ) -> Result<R, Error>

where C: AppContext,

Updates the entity referenced by this handle with the given function if the referenced entity still exists, within a visual context that has a window. Returns an error if the entity has been released.

pub fn read_with<C, R>( &self, cx: &C, read: impl FnOnce(&T, &App) -> R, ) -> Result<R, Error>

where C: AppContext,

Reads the entity referenced by this handle with the given function if the referenced entity still exists. Returns an error if the entity has been released.

pub fn new_invalid() -> WeakEntity<T>

Create a new weak entity that can never be upgraded.

Methods from Deref<Target = AnyWeakEntity>

pub fn entity_id(&self) -> EntityId

Get the entity ID associated with this weak reference.

pub fn is_upgradable(&self) -> bool

Check if this weak handle can be upgraded, or if the entity has already been dropped

pub fn upgrade(&self) -> Option<AnyEntity>

Upgrade this weak entity reference to a strong reference.
