Trait PathLike

pub trait PathLike<'data>: Sealed {
    // Required method
    fn into_path_bytes(self) -> Cow<'data, [u8]>;

    // Provided method
    fn into_path(self) -> Cow<'data, Path> { ... }
}

A trait that represents a sequence of bytes that can be interpreted as a path. This is better than AsRef<Path> for the following reasons:

• Doesn’t actually require Path or OsStr, thus working in #[no_std] environments
• Preserves ownership, being closer to into Into<Cow> in this regard.

Required Methods

fn into_path_bytes(self) -> Cow<'data, [u8]>

Convert this to a possibly owned sequence of bytes that’s guaranteed to uphold the same guarantees as an OsStr.

Provided Methods

fn into_path(self) -> Cow<'data, Path>

Available on crate feature std only.

Convert this to a possibly owned Path.

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.
