pub trait AtomicPatch: Sized { }Expand description
AtomicPatch
Marker trait for values whose patch semantics are full replacement.
Types implementing AtomicPatch are treated as indivisible at the patch layer:
their MergePatch implementation replaces the entire value rather than
performing a structural merge.
This is appropriate for:
- primitive values
- numeric wrappers
- timestamps
- fixed-point / scalar domain types
Invariant:
AtomicPatch types must correspond to FieldValueKind::Atomic.
This trait has no methods; it exists solely to opt a type into
overwrite-only merge semantics via a blanket MergePatch implementation.
Dyn Compatibility§
This trait is not dyn compatible.
In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
