Macro number 

number!() { /* proc-macro */ }

Generate a new type for a number

The number! macro generates a new type that is backed by a numeric primitive. By default it uses i64, but you can optionally provide a different backing type, e.g. u64. The new type implements common traits like Display and From<T>, where T is the chosen backing type. The inner value can be accessed using the get method.

Examples

use typed_fields::number;

number!(UserId);

let id = UserId::new(42);
println!("User ID: {}", id);

The default backing type is i64, but this can be changed by passing another type as the second argument:

use typed_fields::number;

number!(Revision, u64);

let rev = Revision::new(42u64);
assert_eq!(42u64, rev.get());
