    fn pointer_ops(&self) -> &Self::PointerOps;
}

Trait for a adapter which allows a type to be inserted into an intrusive collection.

LinkOps implements the collection-specific operations which allows an object to be inserted into an intrusive collection. This type needs to implement the appropriate trait for the collection type (eg. LinkedListOps for inserting into a LinkedList). LinkOps type may be stateful, allowing custom link types.

PointerOps implements the collection-specific pointer conversions which allow an object to be inserted into an intrusive collection. PointerOps type may be stateful, allowing custom pointer types.

A single object type may have multiple adapters, which allows it to be part of multiple intrusive collections simultaneously.

In most cases you do not need to implement this trait manually: the intrusive_adapter! macro will generate the necessary implementation for a given type and its link field. However it is possible to implement it manually if the intrusive link is not a direct field of the object type.

It is also possible to create stateful adapters. This allows links and containers to be separated and avoids the need for objects to be modified to contain a link.

Safety

It must be possible to get back a reference to the container by passing a pointer returned by get_link to get_container.

Required methods

unsafe fn get_value(
    &self,
    link: <Self::LinkOps as LinkOps>::LinkPtr
) -> *const <Self::PointerOps as PointerOps>::Value

Gets a reference to an object from a reference to a link in that object.

Safety

link must be a valid pointer previously returned by get_link.

unsafe fn get_link(
    &self,
    value: *const <Self::PointerOps as PointerOps>::Value
) -> <Self::LinkOps as LinkOps>::LinkPtr

Gets a reference to the link for the given object.

Safety

value must be a valid pointer.

fn link_ops(&self) -> &Self::LinkOps

Returns a reference to the link operations.

fn link_ops_mut(&mut self) -> &mut Self::LinkOps

Returns a reference to the mutable link operations.

fn pointer_ops(&self) -> &Self::PointerOps

Returns a reference to the pointer converter.
