Module pointer 

Independent traits for abstracting over different types of pointers and their capabilities.

The pointer traits are independent (no supertrait relationships between them):

• Pointer: Base trait for any heap-allocated pointer (Box, Rc, Arc).
• RefCountedPointer: Clonable reference-counted pointer (Rc, Arc).
• SendRefCountedPointer: Thread-safe reference-counted pointer (Arc).

Coercion traits wrap closures into dyn Fn trait objects:

• ToDynFn: Coerce to dyn Fn behind any pointer (extends Pointer).
• ToDynCloneFn: Coerce to dyn Fn behind a clonable pointer (extends RefCountedPointer).
• ToDynSendFn: Coerce to dyn Fn + Send + Sync behind a thread-safe pointer (extends SendRefCountedPointer).

Examples

use fp_library::{
	brands::*,
	functions::*,
};

let ptr = pointer_new::<RcBrand, _>(42);
assert_eq!(*ptr, 42);

Traits

Pointer

Base type class for heap-allocated pointers.

Functions

new

Wraps a sized value in the pointer.
