如何为一个简单的结构实现迭代器和 IntoIterator?

如何实现以下结构的 IteratorIntoIterator特性?

struct Pixel {
r: i8,
g: i8,
b: i8,
}

我尝试了以下各种形式,但都没有成功。

impl IntoIterator for Pixel {
type Item = i8;
type IntoIter = Iterator<Item=Self::Item>;


fn into_iter(self) -> Self::IntoIter {
[&self.r, &self.b, &self.g].into_iter()
}
}

这段代码给了我一个编译错误

error[E0277]: the trait bound `std::iter::Iterator<Item=i8> + 'static: std::marker::Sized` is not satisfied

Your iterator type is Iterator<Item = Self::Item>, but Iterator is a trait. Traits are implemented by structs, they don't exist on their own. You could also have a reference trait object (&Iterator), a boxed trait object (Box<Iterator>) or an anonymous trait implementation (impl Iterator), all of which have a known sizes.

Instead, we create a PixelIntoIterator that has a known size and implements Iterator itself:

struct Pixel {
r: i8,
g: i8,
b: i8,
}


impl IntoIterator for Pixel {
type Item = i8;
type IntoIter = PixelIntoIterator;


fn into_iter(self) -> Self::IntoIter {
PixelIntoIterator {
pixel: self,
index: 0,
}
}
}


pub struct PixelIntoIterator {
pixel: Pixel,
index: usize,
}


impl Iterator for PixelIntoIterator {
type Item = i8;
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<i8> {
let result = match self.index {
0 => self.pixel.r,
1 => self.pixel.g,
2 => self.pixel.b,
_ => return None,
};
self.index += 1;
Some(result)
}
}


fn main() {
let p = Pixel {
r: 54,
g: 23,
b: 74,
};
for component in p {
println!("{}", component);
}
}

This has the nice benefit of returning actual i8s, not references. Since these are so small, you might as well pass them directly.

This consumes the Pixel. If you had a reference to a Pixel, you'd need to also implement an iterator that doesn't consume it:

impl<'a> IntoIterator for &'a Pixel {
type Item = i8;
type IntoIter = PixelIterator<'a>;


fn into_iter(self) -> Self::IntoIter {
PixelIterator {
pixel: self,
index: 0,
}
}
}


pub struct PixelIterator<'a> {
pixel: &'a Pixel,
index: usize,
}


impl<'a> Iterator for PixelIterator<'a> {
type Item = i8;
fn next(&mut self) -> Option<i8> {
let result = match self.index {
0 => self.pixel.r,
1 => self.pixel.g,
2 => self.pixel.b,
_ => return None,
};
self.index += 1;
Some(result)
}
}

If you wanted to support creating both a consuming iterator and a non-consuming iterator, you can implement both versions. You can always take a reference to a Pixel you own, so you only need the non-consuming variant. However, it's often nice to have a consuming version so that you can return the iterator without worrying about lifetimes.


it'd be much more convenient to write this by reusing iterators that already exists, e.g., with [T; 3]

As of Rust 1.51, you can leverage array::IntoIter:

impl IntoIterator for Pixel {
type Item = i8;
type IntoIter = std::array::IntoIter<i8, 3>;


fn into_iter(self) -> Self::IntoIter {
std::array::IntoIter::new([self.r, self.b, self.g])
}
}

In previous versions, it might be a bit silly, but you could avoid creating your own iterator type by gluing some existing types together and using impl Iterator:

use std::iter;


impl Pixel {
fn values(&self) -> impl Iterator<Item = i8> {
let r = iter::once(self.r);
let b = iter::once(self.b);
let g = iter::once(self.g);
r.chain(b).chain(g)
}
}

First, IntoIter must point to a real struct and not to a trait in order for Rust to be able to pass the value around (that's what Sized means). In case of arrays into_iter returns the std::slice::Iter struct.

Second, a typical array, [1, 2, 3], isn't allocated on heap. In fact, the compiler is allowed to optimize away the allocation entirely, pointing to a pre-compiled array instead. Being able to iterate the arrays without copying them anywhere is I think the reason why the IntoIterator implementation for arrays doesn't move the array anywhere as other IntoIterator implementations do. Instead it seems to reference the existing array. You can see from its signature

impl<'a, T> IntoIterator for &'a [T; 3]
type Item = &'a T
type IntoIter = Iter<'a, T>
fn into_iter(self) -> Iter<'a, T>

that it takes a reference to an array (&'a [T; 3]).

As such, you can't use it in the way you're trying to. The referenced array must outlive the returned iterator. Here's a version where Rust compiler tells so.

Vector has an IntoIterator implementation that truly moves the data into the iterator and so you can use it.


P.S. To make it both fast and simple, return an array instead of an iterator (playpen):

impl Pixel {
fn into_array(self) -> [i8; 3] {[self.r, self.g, self.b]}
}

That way the array is first moved into the outer scope and then it can be referenced from the outer scope's iterator:

for color in &(Pixel {r: 1, g: 2, b: 3}).into_array() {
println! ("{}", color);
}
