Marker traits for primitive types

This crate provides marker traits for primitive types:

Example

Cargo.toml

# ...

[dependencies]
just_prim = { version = "0.1.0" }

# ...

[features]

# https://doc.rust-lang.org/beta/unstable-book/language-features/marker-trait-attr.html
marker_trait_attr = ["just_prim/marker_trait_attr"]

src/main.rs

// Uncomment if you want to conditionally use the feature. Remove otherwise.
// #![cfg_attr(feature = "marker_trait_attr", feature(marker_trait_attr))]

use just_prim::Prim;

trait MyExtensionTraitForPrimTys: Prim {
    // ...
}

fn main() {}

Building, running, and testing

  • cargo build <other options> --features marker_trait_attr if you want the feature and cargo build <other options> otherwise;
  • cargo run<other options> --features marker_trait_attr if you want the feature and cargo build <other options> otherwise;
  • cargo test <other options> --features marker_trait_attr if you want the feature and cargo test <other options> otherwise.

Features

With marker_trait_attr Nightly feature, each of the provided traits also has #[marker] attribute which allows more optimal implementation of traits via two or more “overlapping” generic impl blocks. Without #[marker] attribute, the “overlapping” impl blocks would be conflicting.
