Struct rustc_data_structures::sync::OnceCell

pub struct OnceCell<T> {
    inner: UnsafeCell<Option<T>>,
}

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

A cell which can be written to only once.

Unlike RefCell, a OnceCell only provides shared &T references to its value. Unlike Cell, a OnceCell doesn’t require copying or replacing the value to access it.

For a thread-safe version of this struct, see std::sync::OnceLock.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let cell = OnceCell::new();
assert!(cell.get().is_none());

let value: &String = cell.get_or_init(|| {
    "Hello, World!".to_string()
});
assert_eq!(value, "Hello, World!");
assert!(cell.get().is_some());

Implementations

impl<T> OnceCell<T>

pub const fn new() -> OnceCell<T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Creates a new empty cell.

pub fn get(&self) -> Option<&T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Gets the reference to the underlying value.

Returns None if the cell is empty.

pub fn get_mut(&mut self) -> Option<&mut T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Gets the mutable reference to the underlying value.

Returns None if the cell is empty.

pub fn set(&self, value: T) -> Result<(), T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Sets the contents of the cell to value.

Errors

This method returns Ok(()) if the cell was empty and Err(value) if it was full.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let cell = OnceCell::new();
assert!(cell.get().is_none());

assert_eq!(cell.set(92), Ok(()));
assert_eq!(cell.set(62), Err(62));

assert!(cell.get().is_some());

pub fn get_or_init<F>(&self, f: F) -> &Twhere
    F: FnOnce() -> T,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Gets the contents of the cell, initializing it with f if the cell was empty.

Panics

If f panics, the panic is propagated to the caller, and the cell remains uninitialized.

It is an error to reentrantly initialize the cell from f. Doing so results in a panic.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let cell = OnceCell::new();
let value = cell.get_or_init(|| 92);
assert_eq!(value, &92);
let value = cell.get_or_init(|| unreachable!());
assert_eq!(value, &92);

pub fn get_or_try_init<F, E>(&self, f: F) -> Result<&T, E>where
    F: FnOnce() -> Result<T, E>,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Gets the contents of the cell, initializing it with f if the cell was empty. If the cell was empty and f failed, an error is returned.

Panics

If f panics, the panic is propagated to the caller, and the cell remains uninitialized.

It is an error to reentrantly initialize the cell from f. Doing so results in a panic.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let cell = OnceCell::new();
assert_eq!(cell.get_or_try_init(|| Err(())), Err(()));
assert!(cell.get().is_none());
let value = cell.get_or_try_init(|| -> Result<i32, ()> {
    Ok(92)
});
assert_eq!(value, Ok(&92));
assert_eq!(cell.get(), Some(&92))

pub fn into_inner(self) -> Option<T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Consumes the cell, returning the wrapped value.

Returns None if the cell was empty.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let cell: OnceCell<String> = OnceCell::new();
assert_eq!(cell.into_inner(), None);

let cell = OnceCell::new();
cell.set("hello".to_string()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(cell.into_inner(), Some("hello".to_string()));

pub fn take(&mut self) -> Option<T>

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (once_cell)

Takes the value out of this OnceCell, moving it back to an uninitialized state.

Has no effect and returns None if the OnceCell hasn’t been initialized.

Safety is guaranteed by requiring a mutable reference.

Examples

#![feature(once_cell)]

use std::cell::OnceCell;

let mut cell: OnceCell<String> = OnceCell::new();
assert_eq!(cell.take(), None);

let mut cell = OnceCell::new();
cell.set("hello".to_string()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(cell.take(), Some("hello".to_string()));
assert_eq!(cell.get(), None);

Trait Implementations

impl<T> Clone for OnceCell<T>where
    T: Clone,

fn clone(&self) -> OnceCell<T>

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl<T> Debug for OnceCell<T>where
    T: Debug,

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<T> Default for OnceCell<T>

fn default() -> OnceCell<T>

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl<T> From<T> for OnceCell<T>

const fn from(value: T) -> OnceCell<T>

Creates a new OnceCell<T> which already contains the given value.

impl<T> PartialEq<OnceCell<T>> for OnceCell<T>where
    T: PartialEq<T>,

fn eq(&self, other: &OnceCell<T>) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

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

impl<T> Eq for OnceCell<T>where
    T: Eq,

Layout

Note: Unable to compute type layout, possibly due to this type having generic parameters. Layout can only be computed for concrete, fully-instantiated types.
