Struct RootedRc 

pub struct RootedRc<T> { /* private fields */ }

Analagous to std::rc::Rc. In particular like std::rc::Rc and unlike std::sync::Arc, it doesn’t perform any atomic operations internally, making it relatively inexpensive

Unlike std::rc::Rc, this type Send and Sync if T is. This is safe because the owner is required to prove ownership of the associated Root to perform any sensitive operations.

Instances must be destroyed explicitly, using RootedRc::explicit_drop, RootedRc::explicit_drop_recursive, or RootedRc::into_inner. These validate that the Root is held before manipulating reference counts, etc.

Dropping RootedRc without calling one of these methods results in a panic in debug builds, or leaking the object in release builds.

Implementations

impl<T> RootedRc<T>

pub fn new(root: &Root, val: T) -> Self

Creates a new object associated with root.

pub fn downgrade(this: &Self, root: &Root) -> RootedRcWeak<T>

Create a weak reference.

We use fully qualified syntax here for consistency with Rc and Arc and to avoid name conflicts with T’s methods.

pub fn clone(&self, root: &Root) -> Self

Like Clone::clone, but requires that the corresponding Root is held.

Intentionally named clone to shadow Self::deref()::clone().

Panics if root is not the associated Root.

pub fn into_inner(this: Self, root: &Root) -> Option<T>

Drop the RootedRc, and return the inner value if this was the last strong reference.

pub fn explicit_drop_recursive( self, root: &Root, param: &T::ExplicitDropParam, ) -> Option<T::ExplicitDropResult>

where T: ExplicitDrop,

Drops self, and if self was the last strong reference, call ExplicitDrop::explicit_drop on the internal value.

Trait Implementations

impl<T> Deref for RootedRc<T>

type Target = T

The resulting type after dereferencing.

fn deref(&self) -> &Self::Target

Dereferences the value.

impl<T> ExplicitDrop for RootedRc<T>

fn explicit_drop( self, root: &Self::ExplicitDropParam, ) -> Self::ExplicitDropResult

If T itself implements ExplicitDrop, consider RootedRc::explicit_drop_recursive instead to call it when dropping the last strong reference.

type ExplicitDropParam = Root

type ExplicitDropResult = ()
