Struct nonminmax::NonMaxU8

#[repr(transparent)]
pub struct NonMaxU8 { /* fields omitted */ }

An integer of type u8 which is known to not equal u8::MAX.

This type allows for niche filling optimization (similar to the existing std::num::NonZero* types) meaning items such as Option<NonMaxU8> and Result<NonMaxU8, ()> take up the same amount of space as u8.

// Create using `new`, extract value using `get`
let x = NonMaxU8::new(123).unwrap();
assert_eq!(x.get(), 123);

// The value cannot be `u8::MAX`
let y = NonMaxU8::new(u8::MAX);
assert_eq!(y, None);

// Niche filling optimization works!
use std::mem::size_of;
assert_eq!(size_of::<u8>(), size_of::<NonMaxU8>());
assert_eq!(size_of::<u8>(), size_of::<Option<NonMaxU8>>());

Methods

impl NonMaxU8

pub fn new(value: u8) -> Option<Self>

Creates an instance of NonMaxU8 by checking if the value is not u8::MAX.

pub unsafe fn new_unchecked(value: u8) -> Self

Creates an instance of NonMaxU8 without checking if the value is not u8::MAX.

Safety

The value cannot be equal to u8::MAX.

pub fn get(self) -> u8

Returns the integer value.
