Expand description

The different kinds of projections that can be used in the projection of a Place.

T1 is the generic type for a field projection. For an actual projection on a Place this parameter will always be Ty, but the field type can be unavailable when building (by using PlaceBuilder) places that correspond to upvars. T2 is the generic type for an OpaqueCast (is generic since it’s abstracted over in dataflow analysis, see AbstractElem).

Variants§

§

Deref

§

Field(Field, T1)

§

Index(V)

Index into a slice/array.

Note that this does not also dereference, and so it does not exactly correspond to slice indexing in Rust. In other words, in the below Rust code:

let x = &[1, 2, 3, 4];
let i = 2;
x[i];

The x[i] is turned into a Deref followed by an Index, not just an Index. The same thing is true of the ConstantIndex and Subslice projections below.

§

ConstantIndex

Fields

§offset: u64

index or -index (in Python terms), depending on from_end

§min_length: u64

The thing being indexed must be at least this long. For arrays this is always the exact length.

§from_end: bool

Counting backwards from end? This is always false when indexing an array.

These indices are generated by slice patterns. Easiest to explain by example:

[X, _, .._, _, _] => { offset: 0, min_length: 4, from_end: false },
[_, X, .._, _, _] => { offset: 1, min_length: 4, from_end: false },
[_, _, .._, X, _] => { offset: 2, min_length: 4, from_end: true },
[_, _, .._, _, X] => { offset: 1, min_length: 4, from_end: true },
§

Subslice

Fields

§from: u64
§to: u64
§from_end: bool

Whether to counts from the start or end of the array/slice. For PlaceElems this is true if and only if the base is a slice. For ProjectionKind, this can also be true for arrays.

These indices are generated by slice patterns.

If from_end is true slice[from..slice.len() - to]. Otherwise array[from..to].

§

Downcast(Option<Symbol>, VariantIdx)

“Downcast” to a variant of an enum or a generator.

The included Symbol is the name of the variant, used for printing MIR.

§

OpaqueCast(T2)

Like an explicit cast from an opaque type to a concrete type, but without requiring an intermediate variable.

Implementations§

Returns true if the target of this projection may refer to a different region of memory than the base.

Returns true if this is a Downcast projection with the given VariantIdx.

Returns true if this is a Field projection with the given index.

Returns true if self has any late-bound regions that are either bound by binder or bound by some binder outside of binder. If binder is ty::INNERMOST, this indicates whether there are any late-bound regions that appear free. Read more
Returns true if this type has any regions that escape binder (and hence are not bound by it). Read more
Return true if this type has regions that are not a part of the type. For example, for<'a> fn(&'a i32) return false, while fn(&'a i32) would return true. The latter can occur when traversing through the former. Read more
“Free” regions in this context means that it has any region that is not (a) erased or (b) late-bound. Read more
True if there are any un-erased free regions.
Indicates whether this value references only ‘global’ generic parameters that are the same regardless of what fn we are in. This is used for caching. Read more
True if there are any late-bound regions
Indicates whether this value still has parameters/placeholders/inference variables which could be replaced later, in a way that would change the results of impl specialization. Read more

This method tries to recover the query key from the given DepNode, something which is needed when forcing DepNodes during red-green evaluation. The query system will only call this method if fingerprint_style() is not FingerprintStyle::Opaque.

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