在为引用和非引用类型实现特性时,我是否必须实现特性两次?

Do I have to implement a trait twice when implementing it for both reference and non-reference types?

我想为引用类型和非引用类型实现一个特征。我是否必须实现这些功能两次,或者这不是惯用的做法?

这是演示代码:

struct Bar {}

trait Foo {
    fn hi(&self);
}

impl<'a> Foo for &'a Bar {
    fn hi(&self) {
        print!("hi")
    }
}

impl Foo for Bar {
    fn hi(&self) {
        print!("hi")
    }
}

fn main() {
    let bar = Bar {};
    (&bar).hi();
    &bar.hi();
}

这是 Borrow 特质的一个很好的例子。

use std::borrow::Borrow;

struct Bar;

trait Foo {
    fn hi(&self);
}

impl<B: Borrow<Bar>> Foo for B {
    fn hi(&self) {
        print!("hi")
    }
}

fn main() {
    let bar = Bar;
    (&bar).hi();
    &bar.hi();
}

不,您不必复制代码。相反,您可以委派:

impl Foo for &'_ Bar {
    fn hi(&self) {
        (**self).hi()
    }
}

我会更进一步,为所有对实现该特征的类型的引用实现该特征:

impl<T: Foo> Foo for &'_ T {
    fn hi(&self) {
        (**self).hi()
    }
}

另请参阅:

  • Implementing a trait for reference and non reference types causes conflicting implementations

&bar.hi();

此代码等同于 &(bar.hi()),可能不是您想要的。

另请参阅:

您可以使用 Cow:

use std::borrow::Cow;

#[derive(Clone)]
struct Bar;

trait Foo {
    fn hi(self) -> &'static str;
}

impl<'a, B> Foo for B where B: Into<Cow<'a, Bar>> {
    fn hi(self) -> &'static str {
        let bar = self.into();

        // bar is either owned or borrowed:
        match bar {
            Cow::Owned(_) => "Owned",
            Cow::Borrowed(_) => "Borrowed",
        }
    }
}

/* Into<Cow> implementation */

impl<'a> From<Bar> for Cow<'a, Bar> {
    fn from(f: Bar) -> Cow<'a, Bar> {
        Cow::Owned(f)
    }
}

impl<'a> From<&'a Bar> for Cow<'a, Bar> {
    fn from(f: &'a Bar) -> Cow<'a, Bar> {
        Cow::Borrowed(f)
    }
}

/* Proof it works: */

fn main() {
    let bar = &Bar;
    assert_eq!(bar.hi(), "Borrowed");

    let bar = Bar;
    assert_eq!(bar.hi(), "Owned");
}

Borrow 相比的一个优势是您知道数据是按值传递还是按引用传递(如果这对您很重要)。
