Overview

This crate mainly deals with issuing and maintaining stability of indices. It provides 4 structs and each helps in different area. This library was created for my game development endeavor. Not going great on that front as I kept restarting the project. However, I saw these utility structures coming back multiple times so I'm making a crate for them.

In version 0.2.0, you can supply custom Id tuple structs that are based on unsigned integers (from 8bit to 64bits). The id type needs to be derived with the following:

// Minimal needed for all traits that are introduced by this crate.
#[derive(derive_stable_id::StableId)]
struct Id(u8);


// These are needed under normal circumstances.
#[derive(derive_stable_id::StableId)]
struct Id32(u32);

let x: stable_id::Eids<Id32> = Default::default();
let x: stable_id::Sequence<Id32> = Default::default();
let x: stable_id::SparseEntities<Id32, String> = Default::default();
let x: stable_id::Entities<Id32, String> = Default::default();
let x: stable_id::Tec<Id32, String> = Default::default();
