//! This module implements the `Any` trait, which enables dynamic typing
//! of any `'static` type through runtime reflection.
//!
//! `Any` itself can be used to get a `TypeId`, and has more features when used
//! as a trait object. As `&dyn Any` (a borrowed trait object), it has the `is`
//! and `downcast_ref` methods, to test if the contained value is of a given type,
//! and to get a reference to the inner value as a type. As `&mut dyn Any`, there
//! is also the `downcast_mut` method, for getting a mutable reference to the
//! inner value. `Box<dyn Any>` adds the `downcast` method, which attempts to
//! convert to a `Box<T>`. See the [`Box`] documentation for the full details.
//!
//! Note that `&dyn Any` is limited to testing whether a value is of a specified
//! concrete type, and cannot be used to test whether a type implements a trait.
//!
//! [`Box`]: ../../std/boxed/struct.Box.html
//!
//! # Smart pointers and `dyn Any`
//!
//! One piece of behavior to keep in mind when using `Any` as a trait object,
//! especially with types like `Box<dyn Any>` or `Arc<dyn Any>`, is that simply
//! calling `.type_id()` on the value will produce the `TypeId` of the
//! *container*, not the underlying trait object. This can be avoided by
//! converting the smart pointer into a `&dyn Any` instead, which will return
//! the object's `TypeId`. For example:
//!
//! ```
//! use std::any::{Any, TypeId};
//!
//! let boxed: Box<dyn Any> = Box::new(3_i32);
//!
//! // You're more likely to want this:
//! let actual_id = (&*boxed).type_id();
//! // ... than this:
//! let boxed_id = boxed.type_id();
//!
//! assert_eq!(actual_id, TypeId::of::<i32>());
//! assert_eq!(boxed_id, TypeId::of::<Box<dyn Any>>());
//! ```
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Consider a situation where we want to log out a value passed to a function.
//! We know the value we're working on implements Debug, but we don't know its
//! concrete type. We want to give special treatment to certain types: in this
//! case printing out the length of String values prior to their value.
//! We don't know the concrete type of our value at compile time, so we need to
//! use runtime reflection instead.
//!
//! ```rust
//! use std::fmt::Debug;
//! use std::any::Any;
//!
//! // Logger function for any type that implements Debug.
//! fn log<T: Any + Debug>(value: &T) {
//!     let value_any = value as &dyn Any;
//!
//!     // Try to convert our value to a `String`. If successful, we want to
//!     // output the String`'s length as well as its value. If not, it's a
//!     // different type: just print it out unadorned.
//!     match value_any.downcast_ref::<String>() {
//!         Some(as_string) => {
//!             println!("String ({}): {}", as_string.len(), as_string);
//!         }
//!         None => {
//!             println!("{:?}", value);
//!         }
//!     }
//! }
//!
//! // This function wants to log its parameter out prior to doing work with it.
//! fn do_work<T: Any + Debug>(value: &T) {
//!     log(value);
//!     // ...do some other work
//! }
//!
//! fn main() {
//!     let my_string = "Hello World".to_string();
//!     do_work(&my_string);
//!
//!     let my_i8: i8 = 100;
//!     do_work(&my_i8);
//! }
//! ```

/// [mod]: crate::any
// This trait is not unsafe, though we rely on the specifics of it's sole impl's

//
// We could plausibly make this trait unsafe -- it would not cause breakage,
// since we control all the implementations -- but we choose not to as that's
// both not really necessary and may confuse users about the distinction of
// unsafe traits and unsafe methods (i.e., `type_id` would still be safe to call,
// but we would likely want to indicate as such in documentation).
