This library provides 2 attributes: class and extends.
Combination of these attributes can 'simulate' inheritance in Rust.
Note that this library and it's functions are highly experimental.
As class can be marked only struct with named fields.
The child class don't have to be marked as class.
You can't implement Deref and DerefMut traits on child class, because extends actively uses them.
Extending class outside of local module is currently not working.
use roop::*;
#[class] // Marks struct as class
struct Parent {
a: i32,
b: i32,
}
impl Parent {
pub fn print_all(&self) {
println!("a: {}, b: {}", self.a, self.b);
}
pub fn sum_a_b(&self) -> i32 {
self.a + self.b
}
}
#[extends(Parent)] // Extends Parent class, inherit all fields from Parent
struct Child {
c: i32,
}
impl Child {
pub fn print_all(&self) { // This will override the print_all from Parent class
println!("a: {}, b: {}, c: {}", self.a, self.b, self.c);
}
}
fn main() {
let parent = Parent {
a: 1,
b: 2,
};
let child = Child {
a: 1,
b: 2,
c: 3,
};
parent.print_all(); // Output: "a: 1, b: 2"
child.print_all(); // Output: "a: 1, b: 2, c: 3"
let p_sum = parent.sum_a_b();
let c_sum = child.sum_a_b();
assert_eq!(p_sum, c_sum); // Will pass!
}
