Struct xarc::Xarc [−][src]
pub struct Xarc<T: Send> { /* fields omitted */ }
Expand description
Xarc
is a derefenceable atomically refcounted smart pointer.
Xarc
is roughly equivalent to Arc
but is compatible with AtomicXarc
.
Examples
Here is some typical usage of Xarc
.
use xarc::Xarc; let xarc = Xarc::new(42); let same = xarc.clone(); let different = Xarc::new(42); // Null checks assert!(!xarc.is_null()); assert_ne!(xarc, Xarc::null()); // Pointer comparisons assert_eq!(xarc, same); assert_ne!(xarc, different); // Value comparisons assert_eq!(xarc.maybe_deref().unwrap(), different.maybe_deref().unwrap()); assert_eq!(Xarc::<i64>::null().maybe_deref(), None);
When implementing a container you often need structures with an immutable part,
such as a pointer to another part of the structure, and a separate value that
you can take
to return a value as you remove it. UnsafeCell
comes to the rescue.
use core::{cell::UnsafeCell, mem}; use xarc::Xarc; struct Example { immutable: i64, takeable: UnsafeCell<i64>, } let mut xarc = Xarc::new(Example {immutable: 0, takeable: UnsafeCell::new(42)}); let value = unsafe { // You had better know what you're doing at this point. 🙂 core::mem::take(&mut *xarc.maybe_deref().unwrap().takeable.get()) }; assert_eq!(value, 42);
Implementations
impl<T: Send> Xarc<T>
[src]
impl<T: Send> Xarc<T>
[src]#[must_use]pub fn maybe_deref(&self) -> Option<&T>
[src]
#[must_use]pub fn maybe_deref(&self) -> Option<&T>
[src]Dereference the pointer only if it is not null. None will be returned if it is null.
#[must_use]pub unsafe fn unguarded_maybe_deref_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut T>
[src]
#[must_use]pub unsafe fn unguarded_maybe_deref_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut T>
[src]Dereference the pointer only if it is not null. None will be returned if it is null.
Safety
- This should be called only if you’re absolutely, 100% certain that nobody else could possibly have access to this data or if you really know what you’re doing.
