ustr 1.1.0

//! Fast, FFI-friendly string interning. A [`Ustr`] (**U**nique **Str**) is a
//! lightweight handle representing a static, immutable entry in a global string
//! cache, allowing for:
//!
//! * Extremely fast string assignment and comparisons -- it's just a pointer
//!   comparison.
//!
//! * Efficient storage -- only one copy of the string is held in memory, and
//!   getting access to it is just a pointer indirection.
//!
//! * Fast hashing -- the precomputed hash is stored with the string.
//!
//! * Fast FFI -- the string is stored with a terminating null byte so can be
//!   passed to C directly without doing the `CString` dance.
//!
//! The downside is no strings are ever freed, so if you're creating lots and
//! lots of strings, you might run out of memory. On the other hand, War and
//! Peace is only 3MB, so it's probably fine.
//!
//! This crate is based on [OpenImageIO's](https://openimageio.readthedocs.io/en/v2.4.10.0/)
//! (OIIO) [`ustring`](https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio/blob/master/src/include/OpenImageIO/ustring.h)
//! but it is *not* binary-compatible (yet). The underlying hash map
//! implementation is directy ported from OIIO.
//!
//! # Usage
//!
//! ```
//! use ustr::{Ustr, ustr, ustr as u};
//!
//! # unsafe { ustr::_clear_cache() };
//! // Creation is quick and easy using either `Ustr::from` or the ustr function
//! // and only one copy of any string is stored.
//! let u1 = Ustr::from("the quick brown fox");
//! let u2 = ustr("the quick brown fox");
//!
//! // Comparisons and copies are extremely cheap.
//! let u3 = u1;
//! assert_eq!(u2, u3);
//!
//! // You can pass straight to FFI.
//! let len = unsafe {
//!     libc::strlen(u1.as_char_ptr())
//! };
//! assert_eq!(len, 19);
//!
//! // Use as_str() to get a `str`.
//! let words: Vec<&str> = u1.as_str().split_whitespace().collect();
//! assert_eq!(words, ["the", "quick", "brown", "fox"]);
//!
//! // For best performance when using Ustr as key for a HashMap or HashSet,
//! // you'll want to use the precomputed hash. To make this easier, just use
//! // the UstrMap and UstrSet exports:
//! use ustr::UstrMap;
//!
//! // Key type is always `Ustr`.
//! let mut map: UstrMap<usize> = UstrMap::default();
//! map.insert(u1, 17);
//! assert_eq!(*map.get(&u1).unwrap(), 17);
//! ```
//!
//! By enabling the `"serde"` feature you can serialize individual `Ustr`s
//! or the whole cache with serde.
//!
//! ```
//! # #[cfg(feature = "serde")] {
//! use ustr::{Ustr, ustr};
//! let u_ser = ustr("serde");
//! let json = serde_json::to_string(&u_ser).unwrap();
//! let u_de : Ustr = serde_json::from_str(&json).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(u_ser, u_de);
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! Since the cache is global, use the `ustr::DeserializedCache` dummy object to
//! drive the deserialization.
//!
//! ```
//! # #[cfg(feature = "serde")] {
//! use ustr::{Ustr, ustr};
//! ustr("Send me to JSON and back");
//! let json = serde_json::to_string(ustr::cache()).unwrap();
//!
//! // ... some time later ...
//! let _: ustr::DeserializedCache = serde_json::from_str(&json).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(ustr::num_entries(), 1);
//! assert_eq!(ustr::string_cache_iter().collect::<Vec<_>>(), vec!["Send me to JSON and back"]);
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! ## Why?
//!
//! It is common in certain types of applications to use strings as identifiers,
//! but not really do any processing with them.
//! To paraphrase from OIIO's `Ustring` documentation -- compared to standard
//! strings, `Ustr`s have several advantages:
//!
//!   - Each individual `Ustr` is very small -- in fact, we guarantee that a
//!     `Ustr` is the same size and memory layout as an ordinary `*u8`.
//!
//!   - Storage is frugal, since there is only one allocated copy of each unique
//!     character sequence, throughout the lifetime of the program.
//!
//!   - Assignment from one `Ustr` to another is just copy of the pointer; no
//!     allocation, no character copying, no reference counting.
//!
//!   - Equality testing (do the strings contain the same characters) is a
//!     single operation, the comparison of the pointer.
//!
//!   - Memory allocation only occurs when a new `Ustr` is constructed from raw
//!     characters the FIRST time -- subsequent constructions of the same string
//!     just finds it in the canonial string set, but doesn't need to allocate
//!     new storage.  Destruction of a `Ustr` is trivial, there is no
//!     de-allocation because the canonical version stays in the set.  Also,
//!     therefore, no user code mistake can lead to memory leaks.
//!
//! But there are some problems, too.  Canonical strings are never freed
//! from the table.  So in some sense all the strings "leak", but they
//! only leak one copy for each unique string that the program ever comes
//! across.
//!
//! On the whole, `Ustr`s are a really great string representation
//!
//!   - if you tend to have (relatively) few unique strings, but many copies of
//!     those strings;
//!
//!   - if the creation of strings from raw characters is relatively rare
//!     compared to copying or comparing to existing strings;
//!
//!   - if you tend to make the same strings over and over again, and if it's
//!     relatively rare that a single unique character sequence is used only
//!     once in the entire lifetime of the program;
//!
//!   - if your most common string operations are assignment and equality
//!     testing and you want them to be as fast as possible;
//!
//!   - if you are doing relatively little character-by-character assembly of
//!     strings, string concatenation, or other "string manipulation" (other
//!     than equality testing).
//!
//! `Ustr`s are not so hot
//!
//!   - if your program tends to have very few copies of each character sequence
//!     over the entire lifetime of the program;
//!
//!   - if your program tends to generate a huge variety of unique strings over
//!     its lifetime, each of which is used only a short time and then
//!     discarded, never to be needed again;
//!
//!   - if you don't need to do a lot of string assignment or equality testing,
//!     but lots of more complex string manipulation.
//!
//! ## Safety and Compatibility
//!
//! This crate contains a significant amount of unsafe but usage has been
//! checked and is well-documented. It is also run through Miri as part of the
//! CI process. I use it regularly on 64-bit systems, and it has passed Miri on
//! a 32-bit system as well, bit 32-bit is not checked regularly. If you want to
//! use it on 32-bit, please make sure to run Miri and open and issue if you
//! find any problems.
