typed-arena-2.0.1/src/lib.rs

//! The arena, a fast but limited type of allocator.
//!
//! **A fast (but limited) allocation arena for values of a single type.**
//!
//! Allocated objects are destroyed all at once, when the arena itself is
//! destroyed. There is no deallocation of individual objects while the arena
//! itself is still alive. The flipside is that allocation is fast: typically
//! just a vector push.
//!
//! There is also a method `into_vec()` to recover ownership of allocated
//! objects when the arena is no longer required, instead of destroying
//! everything.
//!
//! ## Example
//!
//! ```
//! use typed_arena::Arena;
//!
//! struct Monster {
//!     level: u32,
//! }
//!
//! let monsters = Arena::new();
//!
//! let vegeta = monsters.alloc(Monster { level: 9001 });
//! assert!(vegeta.level > 9000);
//! ```
//!
//! ## Safe Cycles
//!
//! All allocated objects get the same lifetime, so you can safely create cycles
//! between them. This can be useful for certain data structures, such as graphs
//! and trees with parent pointers.
//!
//! ```
//! use std::cell::Cell;
//! use typed_arena::Arena;
//!
//! struct CycleParticipant<'a> {
//!     other: Cell<Option<&'a CycleParticipant<'a>>>,
//! }
//!
//! let arena = Arena::new();
//!
//! let a = arena.alloc(CycleParticipant { other: Cell::new(None) });
//! let b = arena.alloc(CycleParticipant { other: Cell::new(None) });
//!
//! a.other.set(Some(b));
//! b.other.set(Some(a));
//! ```

// Potential optimizations:
// 1) add and stabilize a method for in-place reallocation of vecs.
// 2) add and stabilize placement new.
// 3) use an iterator. This may add far too much unsafe code.
