pub trait Reclaim { }
Expand description
Trait for types that can be dropped (which is all of them).
This trait exists solely as a workaround for the fact that only types with an explicit Drop
implementation implement Drop
, even though all types can be dropped. We want to store
the equivalent of Box<dyn Drop>
when objects are retired, but can’t do that since not every
type is Drop
. This trait is effectively the same as Drop
(every trait implies Drop
), and
has a blanket implementation for any type, so can be used instead of dyn Drop
.
