1//! Utilities for dynamic typing or type reflection.
2//!
3//! # `Any` and `TypeId`
4//!
5//! `Any` itself can be used to get a `TypeId`, and has more features when used
6//! as a trait object. As `&dyn Any` (a borrowed trait object), it has the `is`
7//! and `downcast_ref` methods, to test if the contained value is of a given type,
8//! and to get a reference to the inner value as a type. As `&mut dyn Any`, there
9//! is also the `downcast_mut` method, for getting a mutable reference to the
10//! inner value. `Box<dyn Any>` adds the `downcast` method, which attempts to
11//! convert to a `Box<T>`. See the [`Box`] documentation for the full details.
12//!
13//! Note that `&dyn Any` is limited to testing whether a value is of a specified
14//! concrete type, and cannot be used to test whether a type implements a trait.
15//!
16//! [`Box`]: ../../std/boxed/struct.Box.html
17//!
18//! # Smart pointers and `dyn Any`
19//!
20//! One piece of behavior to keep in mind when using `Any` as a trait object,
21//! especially with types like `Box<dyn Any>` or `Arc<dyn Any>`, is that simply
22//! calling `.type_id()` on the value will produce the `TypeId` of the
23//! *container*, not the underlying trait object. This can be avoided by
24//! converting the smart pointer into a `&dyn Any` instead, which will return
25//! the object's `TypeId`. For example:
26//!
27//! ```
28//! use std::any::{Any, TypeId};
29//!
30//! let boxed: Box<dyn Any> = Box::new(3_i32);
31//!
32//! // You're more likely to want this:
33//! let actual_id = (&*boxed).type_id();
34//! // ... than this:
35//! let boxed_id = boxed.type_id();
36//!
37//! assert_eq!(actual_id, TypeId::of::<i32>());
38//! assert_eq!(boxed_id, TypeId::of::<Box<dyn Any>>());
39//! ```
40//!
41//! ## Examples
42//!
43//! Consider a situation where we want to log a value passed to a function.
44//! We know the value we're working on implements `Debug`, but we don't know its
45//! concrete type. We want to give special treatment to certain types: in this
46//! case printing out the length of `String` values prior to their value.
47//! We don't know the concrete type of our value at compile time, so we need to
48//! use runtime reflection instead.
49//!
50//! ```rust
51//! use std::fmt::Debug;
52//! use std::any::Any;
53//!
54//! // Logger function for any type that implements `Debug`.
55//! fn log<T: Any + Debug>(value: &T) {
56//! let value_any = value as &dyn Any;
57//!
58//! // Try to convert our value to a `String`. If successful, we want to
59//! // output the `String`'s length as well as its value. If not, it's a
60//! // different type: just print it out unadorned.
61//! match value_any.downcast_ref::<String>() {
62//! Some(as_string) => {
63//! println!("String ({}): {}", as_string.len(), as_string);
64//! }
65//! None => {
66//! println!("{value:?}");
67//! }
68//! }
69//! }
70//!
71//! // This function wants to log its parameter out prior to doing work with it.
72//! fn do_work<T: Any + Debug>(value: &T) {
73//! log(value);
74//! // ...do some other work
75//! }
76//!
77//! fn main() {
78//! let my_string = "Hello World".to_string();
79//! do_work(&my_string);
80//!
81//! let my_i8: i8 = 100;
82//! do_work(&my_i8);
83//! }
84//! ```

92// Any trait
93///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
94
95/// A trait to emulate dynamic typing.
96///
97/// Most types implement `Any`. However, any type which contains a non-`'static` reference does not.
98/// See the [module-level documentation][mod] for more details.
99///
100/// [mod]: crate::any
101// This trait is not unsafe, though we rely on the specifics of it's sole impl's
102// `type_id` function in unsafe code (e.g., `downcast`). Normally, that would be
103// a problem, but because the only impl of `Any` is a blanket implementation, no
104// other code can implement `Any`.
105//
106// We could plausibly make this trait unsafe -- it would not cause breakage,
107// since we control all the implementations -- but we choose not to as that's
108// both not really necessary and may confuse users about the distinction of
109// unsafe traits and unsafe methods (i.e., `type_id` would still be safe to call,
110// but we would likely want to indicate as such in documentation).

598// TypeID and its methods
599///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
600
601/// A `TypeId` represents a globally unique identifier for a type.
602///
603/// Each `TypeId` is an opaque object which does not allow inspection of what's
604/// inside but does allow basic operations such as cloning, comparison,
605/// printing, and showing.
606///
607/// A `TypeId` is currently only available for types which ascribe to `'static`,
608/// but this limitation may be removed in the future.
609///
610/// While `TypeId` implements `Hash`, `PartialOrd`, and `Ord`, it is worth
611/// noting that the hashes and ordering will vary between Rust releases. Beware
612/// of relying on them inside of your code!
613///
614/// # Danger of Improper Variance
615///
616/// You might think that subtyping is impossible between two static types,
617/// but this is false; there exists a static type with a static subtype.
618/// To wit, `fn(&str)`, which is short for `for<'any> fn(&'any str)`, and
619/// `fn(&'static str)`, are two distinct, static types, and yet,
620/// `fn(&str)` is a subtype of `fn(&'static str)`, since any value of type
621/// `fn(&str)` can be used where a value of type `fn(&'static str)` is needed.
622///
623/// This means that abstractions around `TypeId`, despite its
624/// `'static` bound on arguments, still need to worry about unnecessary
625/// and improper variance: it is advisable to strive for invariance
626/// first. The usability impact will be negligible, while the reduction
627/// in the risk of unsoundness will be most welcome.
628///
629/// ## Examples
630///
631/// Suppose `SubType` is a subtype of `SuperType`, that is,
632/// a value of type `SubType` can be used wherever
633/// a value of type `SuperType` is expected.
634/// Suppose also that `CoVar<T>` is a generic type, which is covariant over `T`
635/// (like many other types, including `PhantomData<T>` and `Vec<T>`).
636///
637/// Then, by covariance, `CoVar<SubType>` is a subtype of `CoVar<SuperType>`,
638/// that is, a value of type `CoVar<SubType>` can be used wherever
639/// a value of type `CoVar<SuperType>` is expected.
640///
641/// Then if `CoVar<SuperType>` relies on `TypeId::of::<SuperType>()` to uphold any invariants,
642/// those invariants may be broken because a value of type `CoVar<SuperType>` can be created
643/// without going through any of its methods, like so:
644/// ```
645/// type SubType = fn(&());
646/// type SuperType = fn(&'static ());
647/// type CoVar<T> = Vec<T>; // imagine something more complicated
648///
649/// let sub: CoVar<SubType> = CoVar::new();
650/// // we have a `CoVar<SuperType>` instance without
651/// // *ever* having called `CoVar::<SuperType>::new()`!
652/// let fake_super: CoVar<SuperType> = sub;
653/// ```
654///
655/// The following is an example program that tries to use `TypeId::of` to
656/// implement a generic type `Unique<T>` that guarantees unique instances for each `Unique<T>`,
657/// that is, and for each type `T` there can be at most one value of type `Unique<T>` at any time.
658///
659/// ```
660/// mod unique {
661/// use std::any::TypeId;
662/// use std::collections::BTreeSet;
663/// use std::marker::PhantomData;
664/// use std::sync::Mutex;
665///
666/// static ID_SET: Mutex<BTreeSet<TypeId>> = Mutex::new(BTreeSet::new());
