Trait savefile::IntrospectItem[−][src]

pub trait IntrospectItem<'a> {
    fn key(&self) -> &str;

    fn val(&self) -> &dyn Introspect;
}
Expand description

A child of an object implementing Introspect. Is a key-value pair. The only reason this is not simply (String, &dyn Introspect) is that Mutex wouldn’t be introspectable in that case. Mutex needs something like (String, MutexGuard). By having this a trait, different types can have whatever reference holder needed (MutexGuard, RefMut etc).

Required methods

Should return a descriptive string for the given child. For structures, this would be the field name, for instance.

The introspectable value of the child.
