Rust macros for operator overloading of generic types.

Usage

The macros need four statements

1. (Optional) Generic parameter names
2. Type signature or extended type signature
3. Callable expressions for each operator
4. (Optional) Where clause for generic parameters

Note All statements end with a semicolon except the where clause.

Example

```rust

[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, PartialEq)]

struct Pair(pub T, pub T);

[inline]

fn sub_pair(a: &Pair, b: &Pair) -> Pair where T: Sub + Copy { Pair(a.0 - b.0, a.1 - b.1) }

genops!( ; // Generic parameter names types Pair, Pair => Pair; // Type signature for + call |a: &Pair, b: &Pair| { Pair(a.0 + b.0, a.1 + b.1) }; for - call subpair; // Callable expressions for operators where T: Add + Sub + Copy );

let a = Pair(2, 3); let b = Pair(1, 8);

println!("a + b = {:?}", a + b); //a + b = Pair(3, 11) println!("a - b = {:?}", a - b); //a - b = Pair(1, -5) ```

gen_ops!

The primary macro for all operators.

```rust

[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, PartialEq)]

struct Pair(pub T, pub T);

gen_ops!( ; types Pair, Pair => Pair; for + call |a: &Pair, b: &Pair| Pair(a.0 + b.0, a.1 + b.1); for - call |a: &Pair, b: &Pair| Pair(a.0 - b.0, a.1 - b.1); where T: Add + Sub + Copy );

let a = Pair(10, 5); let b = Pair(8, 9);

println!("a + b = {:?}", a + b); // a + b = Pair(18, 14) println!("a - b = {:?}", a - b); // a - b = Pair(2, -4) ```

genopscomm!

Implements commutative operations.

```rust

[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, PartialEq)]

struct Pair(pub T, pub T);

genopscomm!( ; types Pair, i32 => Pair; for * call |a: &Pair, b:&i32| Pair(a.0 * *b, a.1 * *b); for & call |a: &Pair, b:&i32| Pair(a.0 & *b, a.1 & *b); where T: Mul + BitAnd + Copy ); let a = Pair(12, 3);

println!("a * 5 = {:?}", a * 5); //a * 5 = Pair(60, 15) println!("5 * a = {:?}", 5 * a); //5 * a = Pair(60, 15) println!("a & 2 = {:?}", a & 2); //a & 2 = Pair(0, 2) println!("2 & a = {:?}", 2 & a); //2 & a = Pair(0, 2) ```

genopsex!

Implements trait for borrowed types.

```rust

[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, PartialEq)]

struct Pair(pub T, pub T);

genopsex!( ; types mut Pair, T => Pair; for * call |a: &Pair, b:&T| Pair(a.0 * *b, a.1 * *b); where T: Mul + Copy );

let mut a = Pair(12, 3); { let mut b = &mut a; println!("&mut a * 2 = {:?}", b * 2);// &mut a * 2 = Pair(24, 6) } println!("&a * 2 = {:?}", &a * 2);// &a * 2 = Pair(24, 6) println!("a * 2 = {:?}", a * 2);// a * 2 = Pair(24, 6) ```

genopscomm_ex!

Implements commutative operations for borrowed types.

```rust

[derive(Debug, Copy, Clone, PartialEq)]

struct Pair(pub T, pub T);

genopscomm_ex!( ; types ref Pair, i32 => Pair; for * call |a: &Pair, b:&i32| Pair(a.0 * *b, a.1 * *b); where T: Mul + Copy );

let a = Pair(12, 3); println!("a * 5 = {:?}", a * 5); //a * 5 = Pair(60, 15) println!("5 * a = {:?}", 5 * a); //5 * a = Pair(60, 15) println!("5 * &a = {:?}", 5 * &a); //5 * &a = Pair(60, 15) println!("&a * 5 = {:?}", &a * 5); //&a * 5 = Pair(60, 15) ```

Roadmap

To do: - [ ] Where clause for each operator - [x] Const generic parameters - [ ] Lifetime parameters - [x] Better testing - [ ] Adding github wiki

Warning The vesions 0.1.x might not be compatible with each other
