Crate pui

A set of process unique identifiers that can be used to identify values with minimal overhead within a single process

see the Identifier trait for details

features

• std (default) - if you have the std feature on, it will supercede the alloc feature. This allows you to use:

  • std types to implement various traits, for example Box<I> will implemnt Identifier I
  • thread_local types (from the *_tl)
  • make_global_reuse (this requires internal locking using a Mutex)

• alloc - this allows you to use without pulling in all of std:

  • alloc types to implement various traits, for example Box<I> will implemnt Identifier I

• nightly - this allows you to use:

  • atomics on no_std targets that don't support 64-bit atomics

Modules

runtime	A runtime checked identifier
scoped	Use lifetimes to guarantee unique identifiers.
typeid	A type based identifier that uses a unique type parameter to assert uniqueness
typeid_tl	std A type based identifier that uses a unique type parameter to assert uniqueness

Macros

make_anon_typeid	Create a new typeid::Type that is guaranteed to be unique
make_global_id_alloc	Create a new type that implements IdAlloc that can be used with Runtime
make_global_id_alloc_tl	std Create a new type that implements IdAlloc that can be used with Runtime which is implemented using a thread-local count
make_global_pool	Create a new type that implements Pool and PoolMut that can be used with Runtime
make_scoped	Create a new scoped identifier with the provided name
make_typeid	Create a new type that can be used with typeid::Type
make_typeid_tl	std Create a new type that can be used with typeid_tl::Type

Traits

Handle	A handle to an Identifier.
Identifier	An Identifier is a process unique identifier
Scalar	a type that can be used as the backing type in make_global_id_alloc an make_global_id_alloc_tl
Trivial	a type that has no safety (library) invariants
