Struct IdentityValues 

pub(crate) struct IdentityValues {
    free: Vec<(u32, u32)>,
    next_index: u32,
    count: usize,
    id_source: IdSource,
}

A simple structure to allocate Id identifiers.

Calling alloc returns a fresh, never-before-seen id. Calling release marks an id as dead; it will never be returned again by alloc.

IdentityValues returns Ids whose index values are suitable for use as indices into a Vec<T> that holds those ids’ referents:

• Every live id has a distinct index value. Every live id’s index selects a distinct element in the vector.

• IdentityValues prefers low index numbers. If you size your vector to accommodate the indices produced here, the vector’s length will reflect the highwater mark of actual occupancy.

• IdentityValues reuses the index values of freed ids before returning ids with new index values. Freed vector entries get reused.

Fields

free: Vec<(u32, u32)>

next_index: u32

count: usize

id_source: IdSource

Implementations

impl IdentityValues

pub fn alloc<T: Marker>(&mut self) -> Id<T>

Allocate a fresh, never-before-seen id with the given backend.

The backend is incorporated into the id, so that ids allocated with different backend values are always distinct.

pub fn mark_as_used<T: Marker>(&mut self, id: Id<T>) -> Id<T>

pub fn release<T: Marker>(&mut self, id: Id<T>)

Free id. It will never be returned from alloc again.

pub fn count(&self) -> usize

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for IdentityValues

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.
