//! A framework for Rust wrappers over C APIs. //! //! Ownership is as important in C as it is in Rust, but the semantics are often implicit. In //! particular, pointer-to-value is commonly used to pass C values both when transferring ownership //! or a borrow. //! //! This crate provides a framework to define a Rust wrapper over these kinds of raw C APIs in a way //! that allows ownership semantics to be expressed in an ergonomic manner. The framework takes a //! dual-type approach similar to APIs in the standard library such as `PathBuf`/`Path` or `String`/ //! `str`. One type represents an owned value and references to the other represent borrowed //! values. //! //! # Examples //! //! ``` //! use foreign_types::{ForeignType, ForeignTypeRef, Opaque}; //! use std::ops::{Deref, DerefMut}; //! //! mod foo_sys { //! pub enum FOO {} //! //! extern { //! pub fn FOO_free(foo: *mut FOO); //! } //! } //! //! // The borrowed type is a newtype wrapper around an `Opaque` value. //! // //! // `FooRef` values never exist; we instead create references to `FooRef`s //! // from raw C pointers. //! pub struct FooRef(Opaque); //! //! impl ForeignTypeRef for FooRef { //! type CType = foo_sys::FOO; //! } //! //! // The owned type is simply a newtype wrapper around the raw C type. //! // //! // It dereferences to `FooRef`, so methods that do not require ownership //! // should be defined there. //! pub struct Foo(*mut foo_sys::FOO); //! //! impl Drop for Foo { //! fn drop(&mut self) { //! unsafe { foo_sys::FOO_free(self.0) } //! } //! } //! //! impl ForeignType for Foo { //! type CType = foo_sys::FOO; //! type Ref = FooRef; //! //! unsafe fn from_ptr(ptr: *mut foo_sys::FOO) -> Foo { //! Foo(ptr) //! } //! //! fn as_ptr(&self) -> *mut foo_sys::FOO { //! self.0 //! } //! } //! //! impl Deref for Foo { //! type Target = FooRef; //! //! fn deref(&self) -> &FooRef { //! unsafe { FooRef::from_ptr(self.0) } //! } //! } //! //! impl DerefMut for Foo { //! fn deref_mut(&mut self) -> &mut FooRef { //! unsafe { FooRef::from_ptr_mut(self.0) } //! } //! } //! ``` //! //! The `foreign_type!` macro can generate this boilerplate for you: //! //! ``` //! #[macro_use] //! extern crate foreign_types; //! //! mod foo_sys { //! pub enum FOO {} //! //! extern { //! pub fn FOO_free(foo: *mut FOO); //! pub fn FOO_duplicate(foo: *mut FOO) -> *mut FOO; // Optional //! } //! } //! //! foreign_type! { //! type CType = foo_sys::FOO; //! fn drop = foo_sys::FOO_free; //! fn clone = foo_sys::FOO_duplicate; // Optional //! /// A Foo. //! pub struct Foo; //! /// A borrowed Foo. //! pub struct FooRef; //! } //! //! # fn main() {} //! ``` //! //! If `fn clone` is specified, then it must take `CType` as an argument and return a copy of it as `CType`. //! It will be used to implement `ToOwned` and `Clone`. //! //! `#[derive(…)] is permitted before the lines with `pub struct`. //! `#[doc(hidden)]` before the `type CType` line will hide the `foreign_type!` implementations from documentation. //! //! Say we then have a separate type in our C API that contains a `FOO`: //! //! ``` //! mod foo_sys { //! pub enum FOO {} //! pub enum BAR {} //! //! extern { //! pub fn FOO_free(foo: *mut FOO); //! pub fn BAR_free(bar: *mut BAR); //! pub fn BAR_get_foo(bar: *mut BAR) -> *mut FOO; //! } //! } //! ``` //! //! The documentation for the C library states that `BAR_get_foo` returns a reference into the `BAR` //! passed to it, which translates into a reference in Rust. It also says that we're allowed to //! modify the `FOO`, so we'll define a pair of accessor methods, one immutable and one mutable: //! //! ``` //! #[macro_use] //! extern crate foreign_types; //! //! use foreign_types::ForeignTypeRef; //! //! mod foo_sys { //! pub enum FOO {} //! pub enum BAR {} //! //! extern { //! pub fn FOO_free(foo: *mut FOO); //! pub fn BAR_free(bar: *mut BAR); //! pub fn BAR_get_foo(bar: *mut BAR) -> *mut FOO; //! } //! } //! //! foreign_type! { //! #[doc(hidden)] //! type CType = foo_sys::FOO; //! fn drop = foo_sys::FOO_free; //! /// A Foo. //! pub struct Foo; //! /// A borrowed Foo. //! pub struct FooRef; //! } //! //! foreign_type! { //! type CType = foo_sys::BAR; //! fn drop = foo_sys::BAR_free; //! /// A Foo. //! pub struct Bar; //! /// A borrowed Bar. //! pub struct BarRef; //! } //! //! impl BarRef { //! fn foo(&self) -> &FooRef { //! unsafe { FooRef::from_ptr(foo_sys::BAR_get_foo(self.as_ptr())) } //! } //! //! fn foo_mut(&mut self) -> &mut FooRef { //! unsafe { FooRef::from_ptr_mut(foo_sys::BAR_get_foo(self.as_ptr())) } //! } //! } //! //! # fn main() {} //! ``` #![no_std] #![warn(missing_docs)] #![doc(html_root_url="https://docs.rs/foreign-types/0.3")] extern crate foreign_types_shared; #[doc(inline)] pub use foreign_types_shared::*; /// A macro to easily define wrappers for foreign types. /// /// # Examples /// /// ``` /// #[macro_use] /// extern crate foreign_types; /// /// # mod openssl_sys { pub type SSL = (); pub unsafe fn SSL_free(_: *mut SSL) {} pub unsafe fn SSL_dup(x: *mut SSL) -> *mut SSL {x} } /// foreign_type! { /// type CType = openssl_sys::SSL; /// fn drop = openssl_sys::SSL_free; /// fn clone = openssl_sys::SSL_dup; /// /// Documentation for the owned type. /// pub struct Ssl; /// /// Documentation for the borrowed type. /// pub struct SslRef; /// } /// /// # fn main() {} /// ``` #[macro_export] macro_rules! foreign_type { ( $(#[$impl_attr:meta])* type CType = $ctype:ty; fn drop = $drop:expr; $(fn clone = $clone:expr;)* $(#[$owned_attr:meta])* pub struct $owned:ident; $(#[$borrowed_attr:meta])* pub struct $borrowed:ident; ) => { $(#[$owned_attr])* pub struct $owned(*mut $ctype); $(#[$impl_attr])* impl $crate::ForeignType for $owned { type CType = $ctype; type Ref = $borrowed; #[inline] unsafe fn from_ptr(ptr: *mut $ctype) -> $owned { $owned(ptr) } #[inline] fn as_ptr(&self) -> *mut $ctype { self.0 } } impl Drop for $owned { #[inline] fn drop(&mut self) { unsafe { $drop(self.0) } } } $( impl Clone for $owned { #[inline] fn clone(&self) -> $owned { unsafe { let handle: *mut $ctype = $clone(self.0); $crate::ForeignType::from_ptr(handle) } } } impl ::std::borrow::ToOwned for $borrowed { type Owned = $owned; #[inline] fn to_owned(&self) -> $owned { unsafe { let handle: *mut $ctype = $clone($crate::ForeignTypeRef::as_ptr(self)); $crate::ForeignType::from_ptr(handle) } } } )* impl ::std::ops::Deref for $owned { type Target = $borrowed; #[inline] fn deref(&self) -> &$borrowed { unsafe { $crate::ForeignTypeRef::from_ptr(self.0) } } } impl ::std::ops::DerefMut for $owned { #[inline] fn deref_mut(&mut self) -> &mut $borrowed { unsafe { $crate::ForeignTypeRef::from_ptr_mut(self.0) } } } impl ::std::borrow::Borrow<$borrowed> for $owned { #[inline] fn borrow(&self) -> &$borrowed { &**self } } impl ::std::convert::AsRef<$borrowed> for $owned { #[inline] fn as_ref(&self) -> &$borrowed { &**self } } $(#[$borrowed_attr])* pub struct $borrowed($crate::Opaque); $(#[$impl_attr])* impl $crate::ForeignTypeRef for $borrowed { type CType = $ctype; } } }
