wrapper-lite 0.3.0

Helper macro for creating a wrapper over any type (new-type idiom).

GitHub Tag

The new type idiom gives compile time guarantees that the right type of value is supplied to a program.

This crate provides a simple macro for you to create a wrapper over any type.

Migrate from v0.2.X

  1. The macro now only accepts valid Rust struct syntax.

    wrapper_lite::wrapper!(
        pub struct TestWrapper1(u8); // <-- note the semicolon, now it's required
    );
    
    wrapper_lite::wrapper!(
        pub struct TestWrapper2 {
            inner: u8,
        }
    );
    
  2. When there's no default value specified, we cannot implement the From trait for the wrapper type, and now it's a hard error.

    wrapper_lite::wrapper!(
        #[wrapper_impl(From)]
        pub struct TestWrapperComplex<'a, 'b> {
            inner: String,
            _a: ::core::marker::PhantomData<&'a ()>,
            _b: ::core::marker::PhantomData<&'b ()>,
        }
    );
    

Migrate from v0.1.X

To make cargo-fmt happy, starting from v0.2.0, the following usage which is not a valid Rust struct syntax is no longer accepted.

wrapper_lite::wrapper!(
    pub ExampleWrapper(u8)
);

Instead:

wrapper_lite::wrapper!(
    pub struct ExampleWrapper(u8);
);

Now we can format the macro content with cargo fmt!
