//! Macros for taking ownership, _starring Liam Neeson_
//!
//! This module exports the `take!` macro which allows you to express ownership on one or more
//! variables.
//!
//! All of them expand into some sort of `let v = v;`. See the [`take!`](macro.take.html)
//! for more details and possible use cases.
//!
//! ### Special Thanks
//! This crate was created through the community efforts at [/r/rust]. Special thanks to:
//!
//! - [/u/CUViper] for poiting out the tradeoffs of this strategy.
//! - [/u/jasonkdark] for the initial implementation.
//!
//! > _[In the voice of Liam Neeson]_
//! > _If you let my object go now, that'll be the end of it. But if you don't, I will look for you,
//! > I will find you, and I will kill you._
//!
//! Whoa Liam Neeson, you'll get your object back, I swear!

/// Take ownership of specific variables.
///
/// One of the main use cases is closures. Closures try to be "smart" about how
/// much scope they capture. If you don't mutate a variable they take `&var`,
/// if you do mutate they take `&mut var`. However, if you require ownership
/// you use `move`, i.e. `move || {... do stuff with var...}`... _right_?
///
/// The problem with `move` is that it moves _every_ variable that is referenced. If you only need
/// to move a few variables it can be a pain. Interestingly, you can tell the compiler to only move
/// _specific_ variables like so:
///
/// ```rust
/// # let (x, y) = (1, 2);
/// let x = x;
/// let y = y;
/// // ... etc
/// ```
///
/// But this is quite silly and not obvious to someone who doesn't know about it. Instead, use the
/// `take!` macro and your code will be self documenting.
///
/// You can also use `take!` to perform a clone or assert to the compiler that you are only taking
/// a certain kind of reference. See the examples for more.
///
/// ## Downsides
/// If you use this macro (or `let x = x`) then the closure becomes `FnOnce`.
///
/// Unfortunately the best explanation of the trade offs is [currently a reddit
/// thread][reddit]. Please help flush out these docs more!
///
/// [reddit]: https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/7u29r3/help_me_make_the_own_macro_and_understand_its_use/dthcvlp/
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ## Changing Ownership
/// It is easy to change the mutability and take references or clones.
///
/// ```rust
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate taken;
/// # fn main() {
/// let (a, mut b, c, d, e, f) = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);
/// take!(
///     &a,     // let a = &a;
///     &mut b, // let b = &mut b;
///     c,      // let c = c;
///     mut d,  // let mut d = d;
///     =e,     // let e = e.clone();
///     =mut f, // let mut e = e.clone();
/// );
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// ## Changing Ownership and Renaming
/// You can also rename one or more of the variables using `as`:
///
/// ```rust
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate taken;
/// # fn main() {
/// let (var_a, mut var_b, var_c, var_d, var_e, var_f) = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);
/// take!(
///     &var_a as a,     // let a = &var_a;
///     &mut var_b as b, // let b = &mut var_b;
///     var_c as c,      // let c = var_c;
///     mut var_d as d,  // let mut d = var_d;
///     =var_e as e,     // let e = var_e.clone();
///     =mut var_f as f, // let mut e = var_e.clone();
/// );
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// ## Usecase: Closures
///
/// Closures are one of the main use cases.
///
/// ```
/// #[macro_use] extern crate taken;
///
/// # fn main() {
/// // make them all mutable to demo that we can control
/// // mutability using `take!`
/// let mut w = vec![1, 2, 3];
/// let mut x = vec![1, 2, 3];
/// let mut y = vec![1, 2, 3];
/// let mut z = vec![10];
///
/// {
///     let closure = || {
///         take!(&w, &mut x, y, mut z);
///         // w.push(5); // ERROR: cannot borrow as mutable
///         x.push(4);    // mutate reference to x
///         z.push(10);   // we own `mut z`
///
///         println!("&x: {:?}", &x);
///         println!("moved y: {:?}", y);
///         println!("moved mut z: {:?}", z);
///         // y and z are dropped
///     };
///
///     closure();
/// }
///
/// println!("&w after: {:?}", w);    // We can still print w!
/// println!("&x after: {:?}", x);    // We can still print x!
/// // println!("y after: {:?}", y);  // ERROR: use of moved value
/// // println!("z after: {:?}", z);  // ERROR: use of moved value
/// # }
/// ```
///
/// ## Usecase: Threads
///
/// Threads are another primary use case, as threads use closures. Threads in particular are always
/// `FnOnce` and often find themselves cloning and moving specific variables.
///
/// ```rust
/// use std::thread::spawn;
/// use std::sync::mpsc::channel;
/// #[macro_use] extern crate taken;
///
/// # fn main() {
/// let (send, recv) = channel();
/// {
///     let th = spawn(|| {
///         take!(send); // let send = send;
///         send.send("foo").unwrap();
///     });
///     th.join().unwrap();
/// }
/// println!("received: {:?}", recv.into_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>());
/// # }
/// ```
