The directive ``using A for B;`` can be used to attach
|
||||
functions (``A``) as member functions to any type (``B``).
|
||||
These functions will receive the object they are called on
|
||||
The directive ``using A for B`` can be used to attach
|
||||
functions (``A``) as operators to user-defined value types
|
||||
or as member functions to any type (``B``).
|
||||
The member functions receive the object they are called on
|
||||
as their first parameter (like the ``self`` variable in Python).
|
||||
The operator functions receive operands as parameters.
|
||||
|
||||
It is valid either at file level or inside a contract,
|
||||
at contract level.
|
||||
|
||||
The first part, ``A``, can be one of:
|
||||
|
||||
- A list of file-level or library functions (e.g. ``using {f, g, h, L.t} for uint;``) -
|
||||
only those functions will be attached to the type as member functions.
|
||||
Note that private library functions can only be specified when ``using for`` is inside the library.
|
||||
- The name of a library (e.g. ``using L for uint;``) -
|
||||
all non-private functions of the library are attached to the type.
|
||||
- A list of functions, optionally with an operator name assigned (e.g.
|
||||
``using {f, g as +, h, L.t} for uint``).
|
||||
If no operator is specified, the function can be either a library function or a free function and
|
||||
is attached to the type as a member function.
|
||||
Otherwise it must be a free function and it becomes the definition of that operator on the type.
|
||||
- The name of a library (e.g. ``using L for uint``) -
|
||||
all non-private functions of the library are attached to the type
|
||||
as member functions
|
||||
|
||||
At file level, the second part, ``B``, has to be an explicit type (without data location specifier).
|
||||
Inside contracts, you can also use ``*`` in place of the type (e.g. ``using L for *;``),
|
||||
which has the effect that all functions of the library ``L``
|
||||
are attached to *all* types.
|
||||
|
||||
If you specify a library, *all* functions in the library get attached,
|
||||
If you specify a library, *all* non-private functions in the library get attached,
|
||||
even those where the type of the first parameter does not
|
||||
match the type of the object. The type is checked at the
|
||||
point the function is called and function overload
|
||||
resolution is performed.
|
||||
|
||||
If you use a list of functions (e.g. ``using {f, g, h, L.t} for uint;``),
|
||||
If you use a list of functions (e.g. ``using {f, g, h, L.t} for uint``),
|
||||
then the type (``uint``) has to be implicitly convertible to the
|
||||
first parameter of each of these functions. This check is
|
||||
performed even if none of these functions are called.
|
||||
Note that private library functions can only be specified when ``using for`` is inside a library.
|
||||
|
||||
If you define an operator (e.g. ``using {f as +} for T``), then the type (``T``) must be a
|
||||
:ref:`user-defined value type <user-defined-value-types>` and the definition must be a ``pure`` function.
|
||||
Operator definitions must be global.
|
||||
The following operators can be defined this way:
