Expand description
A trait used to power list-like operations via reflection.
This corresponds to types, like Vec
, which contain an ordered sequence
of elements that implement Reflect
.
Unlike the Array
trait, implementors of this trait are not expected to
maintain a constant length.
Methods like insertion and removal explicitly allow for their
internal size to change.
push
and pop
have default implementations,
however it will generally be more performant to implement them manually
as the default implementation uses a very naive approach to find the correct position.
This trait expects its elements to be ordered linearly from front to back. The front element starts at index 0 with the back element ending at the largest index. This contract above should be upheld by any manual implementors.
Due to the type-erasing nature of the reflection API as a whole, this trait does not make any guarantees that the implementor’s elements are homogeneous (i.e. all the same type).
§Example
use bevy_reflect::{Reflect, List};
let foo: &mut dyn List = &mut vec![123_u32, 456_u32, 789_u32];
assert_eq!(foo.len(), 3);
let last_field: Box<dyn Reflect> = foo.pop().unwrap();
assert_eq!(last_field.downcast_ref::<u32>(), Some(&789));
Required Methods§
Sourcefn get(&self, index: usize) -> Option<&dyn Reflect>
fn get(&self, index: usize) -> Option<&dyn Reflect>
Returns a reference to the element at index
, or None
if out of bounds.
Sourcefn get_mut(&mut self, index: usize) -> Option<&mut dyn Reflect>
fn get_mut(&mut self, index: usize) -> Option<&mut dyn Reflect>
Returns a mutable reference to the element at index
, or None
if out of bounds.
Sourcefn insert(&mut self, index: usize, element: Box<dyn Reflect>)
fn insert(&mut self, index: usize, element: Box<dyn Reflect>)
Inserts an element at position index
within the list,
shifting all elements after it towards the back of the list.
§Panics
Panics if index > len
.
Provided Methods§
Sourcefn pop(&mut self) -> Option<Box<dyn Reflect>>
fn pop(&mut self) -> Option<Box<dyn Reflect>>
Removes the back element from the list and returns it, or None
if it is empty.
Sourcefn clone_dynamic(&self) -> DynamicList
fn clone_dynamic(&self) -> DynamicList
Clones the list, producing a DynamicList
.
