Deprecated

This method is deprecated. Use into_string instead.

This method will be removed in the next major version.

👎 Deprecated since 1.1.0:

use into_immutable_string instead

Convert the Dynamic into an ImmutableString and return it. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Does this Dynamic hold a variant data type instead of one of the supported system primitive types?

Is the value held by this Dynamic shared?

Not available under no_closure.

Is the value held by this Dynamic a particular type?

If the Dynamic is a shared variant checking is performed on top of its internal value.

Get the TypeId of the value held by this Dynamic.

Panics or Deadlocks When Value is Shared

Under the sync feature, this call may deadlock, or panic. Otherwise, this call panics if the data is currently borrowed for write.

Is this Dynamic read-only?

Constant Dynamic values are read-only. If a &mut Dynamic to such a constant is passed to a Rust function, the function can use this information to return an error of ErrorAssignmentToConstant if its value is going to be modified. This safe-guards constant values from being modified from within Rust functions.

Create a Dynamic from any type. A Dynamic value is simply returned as is.

Safety

This type uses some unsafe code, mainly for type casting.

Notes

Beware that you need to pass in an Array type for it to be recognized as an Array. A Vec<T> does not get automatically converted to an Array, but will be a generic restricted trait object instead, because Vec<T> is not a supported standard type.

Similarly, passing in a HashMap<String, T> or BTreeMap<String, T> will not get a Map but a trait object.

Examples
use quad_compat_rhai::Dynamic;

let result = Dynamic::from(42_i64);
assert_eq!(result.type_name(), "i64");
assert_eq!(result.to_string(), "42");

let result = Dynamic::from("hello");
assert_eq!(result.type_name(), "string");
assert_eq!(result.to_string(), "hello");

let new_result = Dynamic::from(result);
assert_eq!(new_result.type_name(), "string");
assert_eq!(new_result.to_string(), "hello");

Turn the Dynamic value into a shared Dynamic value backed by an Rc<RefCell<Dynamic>> or Arc<RwLock<Dynamic>> depending on the sync feature.

Not available under no_closure.

Shared Dynamic values are relatively cheap to clone as they simply increment the reference counts.

Shared Dynamic values can be converted seamlessly to and from ordinary Dynamic values.

If the Dynamic value is already shared, this method returns itself.

Convert the Dynamic value into specific type.

Casting to a Dynamic just returns as is, but if it contains a shared value, it is cloned into a Dynamic with a normal value.

Returns None if types mismatched.

Panics or Deadlocks

Under the sync feature, this call may deadlock, or panic. Otherwise, this call panics if the data is currently borrowed for write.

These normally shouldn’t occur since most operations in Rhai is single-threaded.

Example
use quad_compat_rhai::Dynamic;

let x = Dynamic::from(42_u32);

assert_eq!(x.try_cast::<u32>().expect("x should be u32"), 42);

Convert the Dynamic value into a specific type.

Casting to a Dynamic just returns as is, but if it contains a shared value, it is cloned into a Dynamic with a normal value.

Returns None if types mismatched.

Panics or Deadlocks

Panics if the cast fails (e.g. the type of the actual value is not the same as the specified type).

Under the sync feature, this call may deadlock, or panic. Otherwise, this call panics if the data is currently borrowed for write.

These normally shouldn’t occur since most operations in Rhai is single-threaded.

Example
use quad_compat_rhai::Dynamic;

let x = Dynamic::from(42_u32);

assert_eq!(x.cast::<u32>(), 42);

Clone the Dynamic value and convert it into a specific type.

Casting to a Dynamic just returns as is, but if it contains a shared value, it is cloned into a Dynamic with a normal value.

Returns None if types mismatched.

Example
use quad_compat_rhai::Dynamic;

let y = &x;

assert_eq!(y.clone_cast::<u32>(), 42);

Flatten the Dynamic and clone it.

If the Dynamic is not a shared value, it returns a cloned copy.

If the Dynamic is a shared value, it returns a cloned copy of the shared value.

Flatten the Dynamic.

If the Dynamic is not a shared value, it returns itself.

If the Dynamic is a shared value, it returns the shared value if there are no outstanding references, or a cloned copy.

Is the Dynamic a shared value that is locked?

Not available under no_closure.

Note

Under the sync feature, shared values use RwLock and they are never locked. Access just waits until the RwLock is released. So this method always returns false under Sync.

Get a reference of a specific type to the Dynamic. Casting to Dynamic just returns a reference to it.

Returns None if the cast fails.

Panics or Deadlocks When Value is Shared

Under the sync feature, this call may deadlock, or panic. Otherwise, this call panics if the data is currently borrowed for write.

Get a mutable reference of a specific type to the Dynamic. Casting to Dynamic just returns a mutable reference to it.

Returns None if the cast fails.

Panics or Deadlocks When Value is Shared

Under the sync feature, this call may deadlock, or panic. Otherwise, this call panics if the data is currently borrowed for write.

Cast the Dynamic as a unit (). Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Cast the Dynamic as the system integer type INT. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Cast the Dynamic as the system floating-point type FLOAT. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Not available under no_float.

(decimal) Cast the Dynamic as a Decimal. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Exported under the decimal feature only.

Cast the Dynamic as a bool. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Cast the Dynamic as a char. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Convert the Dynamic into a String. If there are other references to the same string, a cloned copy is returned. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Convert the Dynamic into an ImmutableString. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Convert the Dynamic into an Array. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.

Convert the Dynamic into a Vec. Returns the name of the actual type if any cast fails.

Create a Dynamic from a Vec<u8>.

Convert the Dynamic into a Vec<u8>. Returns the name of the actual type if the cast fails.
