Struct Name

pub struct Name { /* private fields */ }

A namespaced object name, comprising a namespace, base, and uid. Each namespace contains a set of related objects; the base name is a user-defined name used to indicate the purpose of the named object, and the UID uniquely identifies it. Taken together, each name is global and unique. This facilitates identifiers that are “self-contained”, not requiring additional context when they appear in situ.

Both the namespace and the base must be valid Idents.

Names have a concrete syntax: namespace:base-uid, shown and parsed by Display and FromStr respectively.

Implementations

impl Name

pub fn new(namespace: Ident, base: Ident, uid: Uid) -> Self

Create a new name. Users should typically generate a new name with Name::generate.

pub fn generate(namespace: Ident, base: Ident) -> Self

Generate a new name with the provided namespace and base.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Name

fn clone(&self) -> Name

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Name

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'de> Deserialize<'de> for Name

fn deserialize<__D>(__deserializer: __D) -> Result<Self, __D::Error>

where __D: Deserializer<'de>,

Deserialize this value from the given Serde deserializer.

impl Display for Name

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl FromStr for Name

type Err = ParseError

The associated error which can be returned from parsing.

fn from_str(s: &str) -> Result<Self, Self::Err>

Parses a string s to return a value of this type.

impl PartialEq for Name

fn eq(&self, other: &Name) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl Serialize for Name

fn serialize<__S>(&self, __serializer: __S) -> Result<__S::Ok, __S::Error>

where __S: Serializer,

Serialize this value into the given Serde serializer.

impl Eq for Name
