References and Borrowing
let mut x: Box<i32> = Box::new(1); let a: i32 = *x; // *x reads the heap value, so a = 1 *x += 1; // *x on the left-side modifies the heap value, // so x points to the value 2 let r1: &Box<i32> = &x; // r1 points to x on the stack let b: i32 = **r1; // two dereferences get us to the heap value let r2: &i32 = &*x; // r2 points to the heap value directly let c: i32 = *r2; // so only one dereference is needed to read it // Mutable reference let mut v: Vec<i32> = vec![1, 2, 3]; let num: &mut i32 = &mut v[2]; *num += 1;
Struct methods
Functions in a struct that have self as parameter is called method and it is an associated function.
Associated functions that don't have self as parameters can be used as for example constructors. But they are not called methods.
struct Rectangle { width: u32, height: u32, } impl Rectangle { fn area(&self) -> u32 { self.width * self.height } fn can_hold(&self, other: &Rectangle) -> bool { self.width > other.width && self.height > other.height } fn square(size: u32) -> Self { Self { width: size, height: size, } } } fn main() { let a : Rectangle::square(5); let b : Rectangle { width: 1, height: 2, } println!("Can a fit in b? {}", b.can_hold(&a)); }
Debug attribute and println!
#[derive(Debug)] struct Rectangle { width: u32, height: u32, } fn main() { let rect1 = Rectangle { width: 30, height: 50, }; println!("rect1 is {:?}", rect1); // Or with pretty print :#? println!("rect1 is {:#?}", rect1); }
Using dbg! macro in struct assignment can be done as dbg! returns ownership of the expression value.
#[derive(Debug)] struct Rectangle { width: u32, height: u32, } fn main() { let scale = 2; let rect1 = Rectangle { width: dbg!(30 * scale), height: 50, }; dbg!(&rect1); }
Enums
Enums can have different content for their different enumerations.
enum Message { Quit, Move { x: i32, y: i32 }, Write(String), ChangeColor(i32, i32, i32), }
They can also have functions
enum Message { Quit, Move { x: i32, y: i32 }, Write(String), ChangeColor(i32, i32, i32), } impl Message { fn call(&self) { // method body would be defined here } } let m = Message::Write(String::from("hello")); m.call();
