Expand description
Trait for defining boxed types.
Links together the type name with the type itself.
See register_boxed_type
for registering an implementation of this trait
with the type system.
Required Associated Constants§
Provided Associated Constants§
Sourceconst ALLOW_NAME_CONFLICT: bool = false
const ALLOW_NAME_CONFLICT: bool = false
Allow name conflicts for this boxed type.
By default, trying to register a type with a name that was registered before will panic. If
this is set to true
then a new name will be selected by appending a counter.
This is useful for defining new types in Rust library crates that might be linked multiple times in the same process.
A consequence of setting this to true
is that it’s not guaranteed that
glib::Type::from_name(Self::NAME).unwrap() == Self::static_type()
.
Optional.
Dyn Compatibility§
This trait is not dyn compatible.
In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
