Struct sp_std::cell::Cell1.0.0[][src]

#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct Cell<T> where
    T: ?Sized
{ /* fields omitted */ }
Expand description

A mutable memory location.

Examples

In this example, you can see that Cell<T> enables mutation inside an immutable struct. In other words, it enables “interior mutability”.

use std::cell::Cell;

struct SomeStruct {
    regular_field: u8,
    special_field: Cell<u8>,
}

let my_struct = SomeStruct {
    regular_field: 0,
    special_field: Cell::new(1),
};

let new_value = 100;

// ERROR: `my_struct` is immutable
// my_struct.regular_field = new_value;

// WORKS: although `my_struct` is immutable, `special_field` is a `Cell`,
// which can always be mutated
my_struct.special_field.set(new_value);
assert_eq!(my_struct.special_field.get(), new_value);

See the module-level documentation for more.

Implementations

Creates a new Cell containing the given value.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);

Sets the contained value.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);

c.set(10);

Swaps the values of two Cells. Difference with std::mem::swap is that this function doesn’t require &mut reference.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c1 = Cell::new(5i32);
let c2 = Cell::new(10i32);
c1.swap(&c2);
assert_eq!(10, c1.get());
assert_eq!(5, c2.get());

Replaces the contained value with val, and returns the old contained value.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let cell = Cell::new(5);
assert_eq!(cell.get(), 5);
assert_eq!(cell.replace(10), 5);
assert_eq!(cell.get(), 10);

Unwraps the value.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);
let five = c.into_inner();

assert_eq!(five, 5);

Returns a copy of the contained value.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);

let five = c.get();
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (cell_update)

Updates the contained value using a function and returns the new value.

Examples

#![feature(cell_update)]

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);
let new = c.update(|x| x + 1);

assert_eq!(new, 6);
assert_eq!(c.get(), 6);

Returns a raw pointer to the underlying data in this cell.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);

let ptr = c.as_ptr();

Returns a mutable reference to the underlying data.

This call borrows Cell mutably (at compile-time) which guarantees that we possess the only reference.

However be cautious: this method expects self to be mutable, which is generally not the case when using a Cell. If you require interior mutability by reference, consider using RefCell which provides run-time checked mutable borrows through its borrow_mut method.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let mut c = Cell::new(5);
*c.get_mut() += 1;

assert_eq!(c.get(), 6);

Returns a &Cell<T> from a &mut T

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let slice: &mut [i32] = &mut [1, 2, 3];
let cell_slice: &Cell<[i32]> = Cell::from_mut(slice);
let slice_cell: &[Cell<i32>] = cell_slice.as_slice_of_cells();

assert_eq!(slice_cell.len(), 3);

Takes the value of the cell, leaving Default::default() in its place.

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let c = Cell::new(5);
let five = c.take();

assert_eq!(five, 5);
assert_eq!(c.into_inner(), 0);

Returns a &[Cell<T>] from a &Cell<[T]>

Examples

use std::cell::Cell;

let slice: &mut [i32] = &mut [1, 2, 3];
let cell_slice: &Cell<[i32]> = Cell::from_mut(slice);
let slice_cell: &[Cell<i32>] = cell_slice.as_slice_of_cells();

assert_eq!(slice_cell.len(), 3);
