Enum member std.bitmanip.taggedClassRef
This string mixin generator allows one to create tagged class reference inside structs and classes.
enum taggedClassRef(T, string name, Ts...)
= createTaggedReference!(T, 8, name, Ts);
A tagged class reference uses the bits known to be zero in a normal class reference to store extra information. For example, a pointer to an integer must be 4-byte aligned, so there are 2 bits that are always known to be zero. One can store a 2-bit integer there.
The example above creates a tagged reference to an Object in the struct A. This expects the same parameters
as taggedPointer
, except the first argument which must be a class type instead of a pointer type.
Example
struct A
{
int a;
mixin(taggedClassRef!(
Object, "o",
uint, "i", 2));
}
A obj;
obj .o = new Object();
obj .i = 3;
