Struct rhai::Scope[−][src]

pub struct Scope<'a>(_);

Expand description

Type containing information about the current scope. Useful for keeping state between Engine evaluation runs.

Example

use rhai::{Engine, Scope};

let engine = Engine::new();
let mut my_scope = Scope::new();

my_scope.push("z", 40_i64);

engine.eval_with_scope::<()>(&mut my_scope, "let x = z + 1; z = 0;")?;

assert_eq!(engine.eval_with_scope::<i64>(&mut my_scope, "x + 1")?, 42);

assert_eq!(my_scope.get_value::<i64>("x").unwrap(), 41);
assert_eq!(my_scope.get_value::<i64>("z").unwrap(), 0);

When searching for entries, newly-added entries are found before similarly-named but older entries, allowing for automatic shadowing.

Currently, Scope is neither Send nor Sync. Turn on the sync feature to make it Send + Sync.

Implementations

[src]

impl<'a> Scope<'a>

[src]

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new Scope.

pub fn clear(&mut self) -> &mut Self

Empty the Scope.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Get the number of entries inside the Scope.

pub fn is_empty(&self) -> bool

Is the Scope empty?

pub fn push<K: Into<Cow<'a, str>>, T: Variant + Clone>(
 &mut self,
 name: K,
 value: T
) -> &mut Self

Add (push) a new entry to the Scope.

pub fn push_dynamic<K: Into<Cow<'a, str>>>(
 &mut self,
 name: K,
 value: Dynamic
) -> &mut Self

Add (push) a new Dynamic entry to the Scope.

pub fn push_constant<K: Into<Cow<'a, str>>, T: Variant + Clone>(
 &mut self,
 name: K,
 value: T
) -> &mut Self

Add (push) a new constant to the Scope.

Constants are immutable and cannot be assigned to. Their values never change. Constants propagation is a technique used to optimize an AST.

However, in order to be used for optimization, constants must be in one of the recognized types: INT (default to i64, i32 if only_i32), f64, String, char and bool.

pub fn push_constant_dynamic<K: Into<Cow<'a, str>>>(
 &mut self,
 name: K,
 value: Dynamic
) -> &mut Self

Add (push) a new constant with a Dynamic value to the Scope.

Constants are immutable and cannot be assigned to. Their values never change. Constants propagation is a technique used to optimize an AST.

However, in order to be used for optimization, the Dynamic value must be in one of the recognized types: INT (default to i64, i32 if only_i32), f64, String, char and bool.

pub fn rewind(&mut self, size: usize) -> &mut Self

Truncate (rewind) the Scope to a previous size.

pub fn contains(&self, name: &str) -> bool

Does the scope contain the entry?

pub fn get_value<T: Variant + Clone>(&self, name: &str) -> Option<T>

Get the value of an entry in the Scope, starting from the last.

pub fn set_value<T: Variant + Clone>(
 &mut self,
 name: &'a str,
 value: T
) -> &mut Self

Update the value of the named entry. Search starts backwards from the last, and only the first entry matching the specified name is updated. If no entry matching the specified name is found, a new one is added.

Panics

Panics when trying to update the value of a constant.

Examples

use rhai::Scope;

let mut my_scope = Scope::new();

my_scope.push("x", 42_i64);
assert_eq!(my_scope.get_value::<i64>("x").unwrap(), 42);

my_scope.set_value("x", 0_i64);
assert_eq!(my_scope.get_value::<i64>("x").unwrap(), 0);

[src]

pub fn iter(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item = (&str, bool, Dynamic )>

Get an iterator to entries in the Scope.

Examples

use rhai::{Dynamic, Scope};

let mut my_scope = Scope::new();

my_scope.push("x", 42_i64);
my_scope.push_constant("foo", "hello".to_string());

let mut iter = my_scope.iter();

let (name, constant, value) = iter.next().unwrap();
assert_eq!(name, "x");
assert!(!constant);
assert_eq!(value.cast::<i64>(), 42);

let (name, constant, value) = iter.next().unwrap();
assert_eq!(name, "foo");
assert!(constant);
assert_eq!(value.cast::<String>(), "hello");
