Add new_cyclic_in for Rc and Arc Currently, new_cyclic_in does not exist for Rc and Arc. This is an oversight according to https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/132. This PR adds new_cyclic_in for Rc and Arc. The implementation is almost the exact same as new_cyclic with some small differences to make it allocator-specific. new_cyclic's implementation has been replaced with a call to `new_cyclic_in(data_fn, Global)`. Remaining questions: * ~~Is requiring Allocator to be Clone OK? According to https://github.com/rust-lang/wg-allocators/issues/88, Allocators should be cheap to clone. I'm just hesitant to add unnecessary constraints, though I don't see an obvious workaround for this function since many called functions in new_cyclic_in expect an owned Allocator. I see Allocator.by_ref() as an option, but that doesn't work on when creating Weak { ptr: init_ptr, alloc: alloc.clone() }, because the type of Weak then becomes Weak<T, &A> which is incompatible.~~ Fixed, thank you `@zakarumych!` This PR no longer requires the allocator to be Clone. * Currently, new_cyclic_in's documentation is almost entirely copy-pasted from new_cyclic, with minor tweaks to make it more accurate (e.g. Rc<T> -> Rc<T, A>). The example section is removed to mitigate redundancy and instead redirects to cyclic_in. Is this appropriate? * ~~The comments in new_cyclic_in (and much of the implementation) are also copy-pasted from new_cyclic. Would it be better to make a helper method new_cyclic_in_internal that both functions call, with either Global or the custom allocator? I'm not sure if that's even possible, since the internal method would have to return Arc<T, Global> and I don't know if it's possible to "downcast" that to an Arc<T>. Maybe transmute would work here?~~ Done, thanks `@zakarumych` * Arc::new_cyclic is #[inline], but Rc::new_cyclic is not. Which is preferred? * nit: does it matter where in the impl block new_cyclic_in is defined? |
