Helper macros for instantiating different kinds of algebraic types.
The following documentation applies to:
bounds!()size!()point!()offset!()
Creating vector types
To create one of the aforementioned types, simply specify the components. The number of components determine the dimensions, for example
ⓘ
// This creates a Size2D, because we specified 2 arguments.
let very_big = size!(500, 500);Exceptions
For Bounds2D it is the same,
except the number of arguments are doubled.
ⓘ
// This creates a Bounds2D
let bounds = bounds!(0, 20, 10, 10);Splat syntax
A type can be created with initalized values by specifying the value followed by a semicolon and the number of dimensions.
// This creates a Point2D where X and Y is `5`.
let point = point!(5; 2);
// This creates an Offset2D where X and Y is `0u8`.
let offset = offset!(u8; 2);
// No exception for bounds here, this is a Bounds2D.
let bounds = bounds!(10; 2);
