# iderive: Inner Derive
`iderive` is a drop-in replacement for `derive` that doesn't directly depend
on generic bounds. It only checks the types of a struct's fields when deriving
a trait.
## Example
```rust
#[derive(Clone, Copy)]
struct TaggedIndex<T: ?Sized> {
index: usize,
_tag: PhantomData<T>,
}
let a = TaggedIndex::<String> { index: 0, _tag: PhantomData };
let b = a;
let c = a; // Error: Value used after move
```
This won't work because `derive` requires that `T` implements `Copy` for
`TaggedIndex` to be able to derive it.
In contrast, `iderive` only checks the struct's fields to determine if a
trait can be derived. Because `usize` and `PhantomData<T>` implements `Copy`
regardless of the type of `T`, `iderive(Copy)` will implement `Copy` for
`TaggedIndex`:
```rust
#[iderive(Clone, Copy)]
struct TaggedIndex<T: ?Sized> {
index: usize,
_tag: PhantomData<T>,
}
let a = TaggedIndex::<String> { index: 0, _tag: PhantomData };
let b = a;
let c = a; // Works!
```
## Supported traits
`iderive` is currently implemented for `Clone`, `Copy`, `Debug`,
`Default`, `PartialEq`, `Eq`, `PartialOrd`, `Ord` and `Hash`.
## Version history
- 1.2.0
- Rewrite; iderive now has no dependencies
- Don't use canonical implementations, because this breaks if the other trait fails bounds
- 1.1.2
- Remove the non-exhaustive support added in 1.1.1 as it doesn't make sense when all
fields are displayed anyway. This matches the output of `#[derive(Debug)]`
- 1.1.1
- Indicate non-exhausiveness in the output of the `Debug` trait for named structs
- Guard against redefinitions of the `bool` type
- Don't require syn's `full` feature
- Add more license options
- 1.1.0
- Use canonical implementations of `Clone`/`PartialOrd` if `Copy`/`Ord` is also derived
- Update to syn 2.0
- 1.0.0
- Remove debug output that was left in by accident
- 0.1.0
- First release
