Struct Box

pub struct Box<'a, T: ?Sized>(/* private fields */);

An owned pointer to a bump-allocated T value, that runs Drop implementations.

See the module-level documentation for more details.

Implementations

impl<'a, T> Box<'a, T>

pub fn new_in(x: T, a: &'a Bump) -> Box<'a, T>

Allocates memory on the heap and then places x into it.

This doesn’t actually allocate if T is zero-sized.

Examples

use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let five = Box::new_in(5, &b);

pub fn pin_in(x: T, a: &'a Bump) -> Pin<Box<'a, T>>

Constructs a new Pin<Box<T>>. If T does not implement Unpin, then x will be pinned in memory and unable to be moved.

pub fn into_inner(b: Box<'a, T>) -> T

Consumes the Box, returning the wrapped value.

Examples

use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let hello = Box::new_in("hello".to_owned(), &b);
assert_eq!(Box::into_inner(hello), "hello");

impl<'a, T: ?Sized> Box<'a, T>

pub unsafe fn from_raw(raw: *mut T) -> Self

Constructs a box from a raw pointer.

After calling this function, the raw pointer is owned by the resulting Box. Specifically, the Box destructor will call the destructor of T and free the allocated memory. For this to be safe, the memory must have been allocated in accordance with the memory layout used by Box .

Safety

This function is unsafe because improper use may lead to memory problems. For example, a double-free may occur if the function is called twice on the same raw pointer.

Examples

Recreate a Box which was previously converted to a raw pointer using Box::into_raw:

use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let x = Box::new_in(5, &b);
let ptr = Box::into_raw(x);
let x = unsafe { Box::from_raw(ptr) }; // Note that new `x`'s lifetime is unbound. It must be bound to the `b` immutable borrow before `b` is reset.

Manually create a Box from scratch by using the bump allocator:

use std::alloc::{alloc, Layout};
use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

unsafe {
    let ptr = b.alloc_layout(Layout::new::<i32>()).as_ptr() as *mut i32;
    *ptr = 5;
    let x = Box::from_raw(ptr); // Note that `x`'s lifetime is unbound. It must be bound to the `b` immutable borrow before `b` is reset.
}

pub fn into_raw(b: Box<'a, T>) -> *mut T

Consumes the Box, returning a wrapped raw pointer.

The pointer will be properly aligned and non-null.

After calling this function, the caller is responsible for the value previously managed by the Box. In particular, the caller should properly destroy T. The easiest way to do this is to convert the raw pointer back into a Box with the Box::from_raw function, allowing the Box destructor to perform the cleanup.

Note: this is an associated function, which means that you have to call it as Box::into_raw(b) instead of b.into_raw(). This is so that there is no conflict with a method on the inner type.

Examples

Converting the raw pointer back into a Box with Box::from_raw for automatic cleanup:

use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let x = Box::new_in(String::from("Hello"), &b);
let ptr = Box::into_raw(x);
let x = unsafe { Box::from_raw(ptr) }; // Note that new `x`'s lifetime is unbound. It must be bound to the `b` immutable borrow before `b` is reset.

Manual cleanup by explicitly running the destructor:

use std::ptr;
use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let mut x = Box::new_in(String::from("Hello"), &b);
let p = Box::into_raw(x);
unsafe {
    ptr::drop_in_place(p);
}

pub fn leak(b: Box<'a, T>) -> &'a mut T

Consumes and leaks the Box, returning a mutable reference, &'a mut T. Note that the type T must outlive the chosen lifetime 'a. If the type has only static references, or none at all, then this may be chosen to be 'static.

This function is mainly useful for data that lives for the remainder of the program’s life. Dropping the returned reference will cause a memory leak. If this is not acceptable, the reference should first be wrapped with the Box::from_raw function producing a Box. This Box can then be dropped which will properly destroy T and release the allocated memory.

Note: this is an associated function, which means that you have to call it as Box::leak(b) instead of b.leak(). This is so that there is no conflict with a method on the inner type.

Examples

Simple usage:

use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box};

let b = Bump::new();

let x = Box::new_in(41, &b);
let reference: &mut usize = Box::leak(x);
*reference += 1;
assert_eq!(*reference, 42);

 use bumpalo::{Bump, boxed::Box, vec};

 let b = Bump::new();

 let x = vec![in &b; 1, 2, 3].into_boxed_slice();
 let reference = Box::leak(x);
 reference[0] = 4;
 assert_eq!(*reference, [4, 2, 3]);

impl<'a> Box<'a, dyn Any>

pub fn downcast<T: Any>(self) -> Result<Box<'a, T>, Box<'a, dyn Any>>

Attempt to downcast the box to a concrete type.

Examples

use std::any::Any;

fn print_if_string(value: Box<dyn Any>) {
    if let Ok(string) = value.downcast::<String>() {
        println!("String ({}): {}", string.len(), string);
    }
}

let my_string = "Hello World".to_string();
print_if_string(Box::new(my_string));
print_if_string(Box::new(0i8));

impl<'a> Box<'a, dyn Any + Send>

pub fn downcast<T: Any>(self) -> Result<Box<'a, T>, Box<'a, dyn Any + Send>>

Examples

    if let Ok(string) = value.downcast::<String>() {
        println!("String ({}): {}", string.len(), string);
    }
}

let my_string = "Hello World".to_string();
print_if_string(Box::new(my_string));
print_if_string(Box::new(0i8));

Determines if the elements of this Iterator are lexicographically greater than or equal to those of another.

fn is_sorted(self) -> bool

where Self: Sized, Self::Item: PartialOrd,

Checks if the elements of this iterator are sorted.

fn is_sorted_by<F>(self, compare: F) -> bool

where Self: Sized, F: FnMut(&Self::Item, &Self::Item) -> bool,

Checks if the elements of this iterator are sorted using the given comparator function.

fn is_sorted_by_key<F, K>(self, f: F) -> bool

where Self: Sized, F: FnMut(Self::Item) -> K, K: PartialOrd,

Checks if the elements of this iterator are sorted using the given key extraction function.

impl<'a, T: ?Sized + Ord> Ord for Box<'a, T>

fn cmp(&self, other: &Box<'a, T>) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl<'a, 'b, T: ?Sized + PartialEq> PartialEq<Box<'b, T>> for Box<'a, T>

fn eq(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl<'a, 'b, T: ?Sized + PartialOrd> PartialOrd<Box<'b, T>> for Box<'a, T>

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Box<'b, T>) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

impl<'a, T: ?Sized> Pointer for Box<'a, T>

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'a, T, const N: usize> TryFrom<Box<'a, [T]>> for Box<'a, [T; N]>

This impl replaces unsize coercion.

type Error = Box<'a, [T]>

The type returned in the event of a conversion error.

fn try_from(slice: Box<'a, [T]>) -> Result<Box<'a, [T; N]>, Box<'a, [T]>>

Performs the conversion.
