Type Function TrailerFlags [src]

Alias for std.meta.trailer_flags.TrailerFlags

This is useful for saving memory when allocating an object that has many optional components. The optional objects are allocated sequentially in memory, and a single integer is used to represent each optional object and whether it is present based on each corresponding bit.

Prototype

pub fn TrailerFlags(comptime Fields: type) type

Parameters

Fields: type

Example

 test TrailerFlags {
    const Flags = TrailerFlags(struct {
        a: i32,
        b: bool,
        c: u64,
    });
    try testing.expectEqual(u2, meta.Tag(Flags.FieldEnum));

    var flags = Flags.init(.{
        .b = true,
        .c = true,
    });
    const slice = try testing.allocator.alignedAlloc(u8, 8, flags.sizeInBytes());
    defer testing.allocator.free(slice);

    flags.set(slice.ptr, .b, false);
    flags.set(slice.ptr, .c, 12345678);

    try testing.expect(flags.get(slice.ptr, .a) == null);
    try testing.expect(!flags.get(slice.ptr, .b).?);
    try testing.expect(flags.get(slice.ptr, .c).? == 12345678);

    flags.setMany(slice.ptr, .{
        .b = true,
        .c = 5678,
    });

    try testing.expect(flags.get(slice.ptr, .a) == null);
    try testing.expect(flags.get(slice.ptr, .b).?);
    try testing.expect(flags.get(slice.ptr, .c).? == 5678);
}
