Expand description
Types used for indexing into HLists and coproducts.
frunk frequently uses phantom index types as a technique to avoid overlapping impls for some traits.
Currently, Index
type parameters in traits are not ever really intended
to be selected by the user, and are instead simply solved for by type
inference wherever the compiler can see that there is a unique solution.
Therefore, you don’t really have much of a reason to use the things in this
module.
…yet. ;)
Structs§
- Index for the case where we need to do work in order to transmogrify one type into another.
- Used as an index into an
HList
. - Index type wrapper for transmogrifying a generic Source to a generic Target
- Index type wrapper for transmogrifying through a (known) container (e.g.
Vec
). - Index type wrapper for transmogrifying a generic plucked Source to a generic Target
- An index denoting that
Suffix
is just that. - Used as an index into an
HList
.
Enums§
- Index for the case where we don’t need to do any transmogrifying at all because the source type is the same as the target type.
