Struct AVPlayerItemSegment

Source

pub struct AVPlayerItemSegment { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature AVPlayerItemIntegratedTimeline only.

Expand description

Representing a segment of time on the integrated timeline. Segments are immutable objects.

Subclasses of this type that are used from Swift must fulfill the requirements of a Sendable type.

Implementations§

Source §

pub unsafe fn segmentType(&self) -> AVPlayerItemSegmentType

The type of content this segment represents.

This property is not atomic.

§Safety

This might not be thread-safe.

Source

pub unsafe fn timeMapping(&self) -> CMTimeMapping

Available on crate feature objc2-core-media only.

The timeMapping for this segment.

The timeMapping source timeRange represents the start and duration in the segment source’s timeline (ie: primary item timeline or interstitial event). The target timeRange represents the start point and duration in the integrated timeline. For interstitial events which occupy a single point, the target’s duration will be kCMTimeZero.

This property is not atomic.

§Safety

This might not be thread-safe.

Source

pub unsafe fn loadedTimeRanges(&self) -> Retained<NSArray<NSValue>>

This property provides a collection of time ranges for the segment if media data is readily available. The ranges provided might be discontinuous.

Returns an NSArray of NSValues containing CMTimeRanges. Loaded time ranges will be within the timeMapping’s target timeRange. Loaded time ranges will be empty for interstitial events that occupy a single point in time.

Source

pub unsafe fn startDate(&self) -> Option<Retained<NSDate>>

The date this segment starts at.

The date this segment starts at. This value will be nil if the primary item does not contain dates.

This property is not atomic.

§Safety

This might not be thread-safe.

Source

pub unsafe fn interstitialEvent( &self, ) -> Option<Retained<AVPlayerInterstitialEvent>>

Available on crate feature AVPlayerInterstitialEventController only.

The associated interstitial event for this segment.

The associated interstitial event for this segment. This value will be nil for segments representing playback of the primary itme.

This property is not atomic.

§Safety

This might not be thread-safe.

Methods from Deref<Target = NSObject>§

Source

pub fn doesNotRecognizeSelector(&self, sel: Sel) -> !

Handle messages the object doesn’t recognize.

See Apple’s documentation for details.

Methods from Deref<Target = AnyObject>§

Source

pub fn class(&self) -> &'static AnyClass

Dynamically find the class of this object.

§Panics

May panic if the object is invalid (which may be the case for objects returned from unavailable init/new methods).

§Example

Check that an instance of NSObject has the precise class NSObject.

use objc2::ClassType;
use objc2::runtime::NSObject;

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert_eq!(obj.class(), NSObject::class());

Source

pub unsafe fn get_ivar<T>(&self, name: &str) -> &T
where T: Encode,

👎Deprecated: this is difficult to use correctly, use Ivar::load instead.

Use Ivar::load instead.

§Safety

The object must have an instance variable with the given name, and it must be of type T.

See Ivar::load_ptr for details surrounding this.

Source

pub fn downcast_ref<T>(&self) -> Option<&T>
where T: DowncastTarget,

Attempt to downcast the object to a class of type T.

This is the reference-variant. Use Retained::downcast if you want to convert a retained object to another type.

§Mutable classes

Some classes have immutable and mutable variants, such as NSString and NSMutableString.

When some Objective-C API signature says it gives you an immutable class, it generally expects you to not mutate that, even though it may technically be mutable “under the hood”.

So using this method to convert a NSString to a NSMutableString, while not unsound, is generally frowned upon unless you created the string yourself, or the API explicitly documents the string to be mutable.

See Apple’s documentation on mutability and on isKindOfClass: for more details.

§Generic classes

Objective-C generics are called “lightweight generics”, and that’s because they aren’t exposed in the runtime. This makes it impossible to safely downcast to generic collections, so this is disallowed by this method.

You can, however, safely downcast to generic collections where all the type-parameters are AnyObject.

§Panics

This works internally by calling isKindOfClass:. That means that the object must have the instance method of that name, and an exception will be thrown (if CoreFoundation is linked) or the process will abort if that is not the case. In the vast majority of cases, you don’t need to worry about this, since both root objects NSObject and NSProxy implement this method.

§Examples

Cast an NSString back and forth from NSObject.

use objc2::rc::Retained;
use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj: Retained<NSObject> = NSString::new().into_super();
let string = obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().unwrap();
// Or with `downcast`, if we do not need the object afterwards
let string = obj.downcast::<NSString>().unwrap();

Try (and fail) to cast an NSObject to an NSString.

use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert!(obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().is_none());

Try to cast to an array of strings.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);
// This is invalid and doesn't type check.
let arr = arr.downcast_ref::<NSArray<NSString>>();

This fails to compile, since it would require enumerating over the array to ensure that each element is of the desired type, which is a performance pitfall.

Downcast when processing each element instead.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);

for elem in arr {
    if let Some(data) = elem.downcast_ref::<NSString>() {
        // handle `data`
    }
}
