Expand description

Creates a SmallVec containing the arguments.

smallvec! allows SmallVecs to be defined with the same syntax as array expressions. There are two forms of this macro:

  • Create a SmallVec containing a given list of elements:
let v: SmallVec<[_; 128]> = smallvec![1, 2, 3];
assert_eq!(v[0], 1);
assert_eq!(v[1], 2);
assert_eq!(v[2], 3);
  • Create a SmallVec from a given element and size:
let v: SmallVec<[_; 0x8000]> = smallvec![1; 3];
assert_eq!(v, SmallVec::from_buf([1, 1, 1]));

Note that unlike array expressions this syntax supports all elements which implement Clone and the number of elements doesn’t have to be a constant.

This will use clone to duplicate an expression, so one should be careful using this with types having a nonstandard Clone implementation. For example, smallvec![Rc::new(1); 5] will create a vector of five references to the same boxed integer value, not five references pointing to independently boxed integers.
