Type Indexing into Rust Tuples

Provides a trait TypeAt which allow to query the n-th type of a Rust tuple at compile time.

Example: Simple

use type_at::TypeAt;

let _: i8  = <(i8, i16, i32, i64) as TypeAt<0>>::Type::default();
let _: i16 = <(i8, i16, i32, i64) as TypeAt<1>>::Type::default();
let _: i32 = <(i8, i16, i32, i64) as TypeAt<2>>::Type::default();
let _: i64 = <(i8, i16, i32, i64) as TypeAt<3>>::Type::default();

Example: Nested

use type_at::TypeAt;

let _: i64 = <<<<(i8, (i16, (i32, (i64,))))
    as TypeAt<1>>::Type // (i16, (i32, (i64,)))
    as TypeAt<1>>::Type // (i32, (i64,))
    as TypeAt<1>>::Type // (i64,)
    as TypeAt<0>>::Type::default();

Example: Derive

#[derive(TypeAt)]
pub struct TupleStruct(i8, i16, i32);

let _: i8   = <TupleStruct as TypeAt<0>>::Type::default();
let _: i16  = <TupleStruct as TypeAt<1>>::Type::default();
let _: i32  = <TupleStruct as TypeAt<2>>::Type::default();

#[derive(TypeAt)]
pub struct Struct { a: i8, b: i16, c: i32 }

let _: i8   = <Struct as TypeAt<0>>::Type::default();
let _: i16  = <Struct as TypeAt<1>>::Type::default();
let _: i32  = <Struct as TypeAt<2>>::Type::default();
