# Enum std::borrow::Cow 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub enum Cow<'a, B> where
        B: 'a + ToOwned + ?Sized,  {
        Borrowed(&'a B),
        Owned(<B as ToOwned>::Owned),
    }

A clone-on-write smart pointer.

The type `Cow` is a smart pointer providing clone-on-write functionality: it can enclose and provide immutable access to borrowed data, and clone the data lazily when mutation or ownership is required. The type is designed to work with general borrowed data via the `Borrow` trait.

`Cow` implements `Deref`, which means that you can call non-mutating methods directly on the data it encloses. If mutation is desired, `to_mut` will obtain a mutable reference to an owned value, cloning if necessary.

# Examples

    use std::borrow::Cow;

    fn abs_all(input: &mut Cow<[i32]>) {
        for i in 0..input.len() {
            let v = input[i];
            if v < 0 {
                // Clones into a vector if not already owned.
                input.to_mut()[i] = -v;
            }
        }
    }

    // No clone occurs because `input` doesn't need to be mutated.
    let slice = [0, 1, 2];
    let mut input = Cow::from(&slice[..]);
    abs_all(&mut input);

    // Clone occurs because `input` needs to be mutated.
    let slice = [-1, 0, 1];
    let mut input = Cow::from(&slice[..]);
    abs_all(&mut input);

    // No clone occurs because `input` is already owned.
    let mut input = Cow::from(vec![-1, 0, 1]);
    abs_all(&mut input);Run

## Variants

`Borrowed(&'a B)`

Borrowed data.

`Owned(<B as ToOwned>::Owned)`

Owned data.

## Methods

### `impl<'a, B> Cow<'a, B> where
B: ToOwned + ?Sized,`
[src]

#### `fn to_mut(&mut self) -> &mut <B as ToOwned>::Owned`

Acquires a mutable reference to the owned form of the data.

Clones the data if it is not already owned.

# Examples

    use std::borrow::Cow;

    let mut cow: Cow<[_]> = Cow::Owned(vec![1, 2, 3]);

    let hello = cow.to_mut();

    assert_eq!(hello, &[1, 2, 3]);Run

#### `fn into_owned(self) -> <B as ToOwned>::Owned`

Extracts the owned data.

Clones the data if it is not already owned.

# Examples

    use std::borrow::Cow;

    let cow: Cow<[_]> = Cow::Owned(vec![1, 2, 3]);

    let hello = cow.into_owned();

    assert_eq!(vec![1, 2, 3], hello);Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)
