Trait ImplicitClone 

pub trait ImplicitClone: Clone {
    // Provided method
    fn implicit_clone(&self) -> Self { ... }
}

Marker trait for cheap-to-clone types that should be allowed to be cloned implicitly.

Enables host libraries to have the same syntax as Copy while calling the Clone implementation instead.

Provided Methods

fn implicit_clone(&self) -> Self

This function is not magic; it is literally defined as

fn implicit_clone(&self) -> Self {
    self.clone()
}

It is useful when you want to clone but also ensure that the type implements ImplicitClone.

Examples:

use implicit_clone::ImplicitClone;
let x: u32 = Default::default();
let clone = ImplicitClone::implicit_clone(&x);

use implicit_clone::ImplicitClone;
let x: Vec<u32> = Default::default();
// does not compile because Vec<_> does not implement ImplicitClone
let clone = ImplicitClone::implicit_clone(&x);

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.
