Struct TakeAndReplace 

pub struct TakeAndReplace<'a, T, U, F>
where
    F: Fn(&mut T) -> &mut U,
    U: Default,
{ /* private fields */ }

An RAII type to temporarily take a U out of a T and then put it back again on drop.

This allows you to split borrows, if necessary, to satisfy the borrow checker.

The F type parameter must project from the container type T to its U that we want to temporarily take out of it.

Example

use cranelift_codegen::TakeAndReplace;

#[derive(Default)]
struct BigContextStruct {
    items: Vec<u32>,
    count: usize,
}

impl BigContextStruct {
    fn handle_item(&mut self, item: u32) {
        self.count += 1;
        println!("Handled {item}!");
    }
}

let mut ctx = BigContextStruct::default();
ctx.items.extend([42, 1337, 1312]);

{
    // Temporarily take `self.items` out of `ctx`.
    let mut guard = TakeAndReplace::new(&mut ctx, |ctx| &mut ctx.items);
    let (ctx, items) = guard.get();

    // Now we can both borrow/iterate/mutate `items` and call `&mut self` helper
    // methods on `ctx`. This would not otherwise be possible if we didn't split
    // the borrows, since Rust's borrow checker doesn't see through methods and
    // know that `handle_item` doesn't use `self.items`.
    for item in items.drain(..) {
        ctx.handle_item(item);
    }
}

// When `guard` is dropped, `items` is replaced in `ctx`, allowing us to
// reuse its capacity and avoid future allocations.  ```
assert!(ctx.items.capacity() >= 3);

Implementations

impl<'a, T, U, F> TakeAndReplace<'a, T, U, F>

where F: Fn(&mut T) -> &mut U, U: Default,

pub fn new(container: &'a mut T, proj: F) -> Self

Create a new TakeAndReplace that temporarily takes out proj(container).

pub fn get(&mut self) -> (&mut T, &mut U)

Get the underlying container and taken-out value.
