# What `#[derive(Index)]` generates Deriving `Index` only works for a single field of a struct. The result is that you will index it's member directly. With `#[index]` or `#[index(ignore)]` it's possible to indicate the field that you want to derive `Index` for. ## Example usage ```rust # use derive_more::Index; # #[derive(Index)] struct MyVec(Vec); // You can specify the field you want to derive Index for #[derive(Index)] struct Numbers { #[index] numbers: Vec, useless: bool, } assert_eq!(5, MyVec(vec![5, 8])[0]); assert_eq!(200, Numbers { numbers: vec![100, 200], useless: false }[1]); ``` ## Structs When deriving `Index` for a struct: ```rust # use derive_more::Index; # #[derive(Index)] struct Numbers { #[index] numbers: Vec, useless: bool, } ``` Code like this will be generated: ```rust # struct Numbers { # numbers: Vec, # useless: bool, # } impl<__IdxT> derive_more::Index<__IdxT> for Numbers where Vec: derive_more::Index<__IdxT>, { type Output = as derive_more::Index<__IdxT>>::Output; #[inline] fn index(&self, idx: __IdxT) -> &Self::Output { as derive_more::Index<__IdxT>>::index(&self.numbers, idx) } } ``` ## Enums Deriving `Index` is not supported for enums.
