pub fn ref_filter_map<T, U, F>(orig: Ref<'_, T>, f: F) -> Option<Ref<'_, U>>
Expand description
Make a new Ref
for a optional component of the borrowed data, e.g. an enum variant.
The RefCell
is already immutably borrowed, so this cannot fail.
This is an associated function that needs to be used as Ref::filter_map(...)
.
A method would interfere with methods of the same name on the contents of a RefCell
used through Deref
.
§Example
use std::cell::{RefCell, Ref};
use ref_filter_map::ref_filter_map;
let c = RefCell::new(Ok(5));
let b1: Ref<Result<u32, ()>> = c.borrow();
let b2: Ref<u32> = ref_filter_map(b1, |o| o.as_ref().ok()).unwrap();
assert_eq!(*b2, 5)
