Как бы вы реализовали двунаправленный связанный список в Rust?

Обратите внимание, что этот вопрос относится к версии Rust до Rust 1.0. Хотя синтаксис изменился, понятия остаются в силе.

Вы можете легко реализовать переадресацию только связанного списка с использованием собственных указателей, например:

struct Node<T> {
  next: Option<~Node<T>>,
  data: T
}

Представьте, однако, если вы хотите эффективно реализовать очередь, которая поддерживает четыре основные операции:

  • push: добавить в конец списка
  • pop: удалить и вернуться из конца списка
  • unshift: добавить в начало списка
  • shift: удалить и вернуть из конца списка

На языке с обычными указателями вы можете реализовать это с двунаправленным связанным списком и корневым объектом, который хранит указатели first и last для первого и последнего элементов в списке.

Я не вижу, как это реализовать в Rust.

Я могу смутно предположить, что вы будете использовать кучу ссылок и, возможно, что-то вроде:

struct Node<T> {
  next: Option<&Node<T>>,
  prev: Option<&Node<T>>,
  data: T
}

... но я не могу понять, как вы управляете областью действия этих переменных.

Может ли кто-нибудь указать мне в сторону этого или аналогичный пример, который включает сложные времена жизни со ссылками между объектами?

(Другим типичным примером этого стиля кода будет шаблон наблюдателя, в котором многие объекты должны публиковать обновления событий в одном месте, например. UINode < > ---- EventObserver < > --- - EventCore < > ---- UINodes; несколько объектов в указателях с объединением сложной иерархии, где события распространяются от листовых узлов до некоторого ядра, а затем выталкиваются в разные узлы листа)

Я рекомендую вам взглянуть на Образцы ржавчины, написанные Ларс Бергстром.

В стандартной библиотеке Rust существует сборка с двойным связыванием, collection:: dlist. Он сопровождается тщательным набором тестов и является приятным чтением, а также удобным инструментом.

Вот ссылка на источник.

Ответ 3

Кроме того, для тех, кто находит этот вопрос, самый ясный и легкий ответ на мой вопрос - "использование".

* - это 4-й тип указателя, о котором никто не любит говорить в ржавчине.

см. http://static.rust-lang.org/doc/0.9/rust.html#pointer-types

То есть нормальный указатель, который может иметь значения NULL и кто использует 1) небезопасно, и 2) не влияет на время жизни других объектов.

Связанный список в обоих направлениях будет реализован как:

struct ListNode<T> {
  _next: Option<~ListNode<T>>,
  _prev: Option<*ListNode<T>>,
  _data: Option<T>
}

Если значение _prev задано с помощью следующих функций:

// Set the previous pointer
fn set_prev(&mut self, mut prev: &ListNode<T>) {
  unsafe {
    self._prev = Some(prev as *ListNode<T>);
  }
}

// Reset the previous pointer
fn reset_prev(&mut self) {
  self._prev = None::<*ListNode<T>>;
}

// Create a new next node and return it
fn extend_end(&mut self, value:T) {
  let mut next = ~ListNode::<T>::new();
  next.set_data(value);
  next.set_prev(self);
  self._next = Some(next);
}

Очевидно, что это крайне беспорядочно, но, по-видимому, это рекомендуемый подход для выполнения действий, связанных с указателями.

Ключевой отрыв от разговоров Ларса Бергстрома (в принятом ответе) заключается в том, что выполнение небезопасных операций, таких как это хорошо, пока они написаны тщательно и безопасно завернуты во внутреннюю реализацию типа, которая продолжает раскрывать "безопасную" public api.
