Struct wasmer::Global

pub struct Global(pub(crate) Global);

A WebAssembly global instance.

A global instance is the runtime representation of a global variable. It consists of an individual value and a flag indicating whether it is mutable.

Implementations

impl Global

pub fn new(store: &mut impl AsStoreMut, val: Value) -> Self

Create a new Global with the initial value Value.

Example

let g = Global::new(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

assert_eq!(g.get(&mut store), Value::I32(1));
assert_eq!(g.ty(&mut store).mutability, Mutability::Const);

pub fn new_mut(store: &mut impl AsStoreMut, val: Value) -> Self

Create a mutable Global with the initial value Value.

Example

let g = Global::new_mut(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

assert_eq!(g.get(&mut store), Value::I32(1));
assert_eq!(g.ty(&mut store).mutability, Mutability::Var);

fn from_value( store: &mut impl AsStoreMut, val: Value, mutability: Mutability ) -> Result<Self, RuntimeError>

Create a Global with the initial value Value and the provided Mutability.

pub fn ty(&self, store: &impl AsStoreRef) -> GlobalType

Returns the GlobalType of the Global.

Example

let c = Global::new(&mut store, Value::I32(1));
let v = Global::new_mut(&mut store, Value::I64(1));

assert_eq!(c.ty(&mut store), GlobalType::new(Type::I32, Mutability::Const));
assert_eq!(v.ty(&mut store), GlobalType::new(Type::I64, Mutability::Var));

pub fn get(&self, store: &mut impl AsStoreMut) -> Value

Retrieves the current value Value that the Global has.

Example

let g = Global::new(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

assert_eq!(g.get(&mut store), Value::I32(1));

pub fn set( &self, store: &mut impl AsStoreMut, val: Value ) -> Result<(), RuntimeError>

Sets a custom value Value to the runtime Global.

Example

let g = Global::new_mut(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

assert_eq!(g.get(&mut store), Value::I32(1));

g.set(&mut store, Value::I32(2));

assert_eq!(g.get(&mut store), Value::I32(2));

Errors

Trying to mutate a immutable global will raise an error:

let g = Global::new(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

g.set(&mut store, Value::I32(2)).unwrap();

Trying to set a value of a incompatible type will raise an error:

let g = Global::new(&mut store, Value::I32(1));

// This results in an error: `RuntimeError`.
g.set(&mut store, Value::I64(2)).unwrap();

pub(crate) fn from_vm_extern( store: &mut impl AsStoreMut, vm_extern: InternalStoreHandle<VMGlobal> ) -> Self

pub fn is_from_store(&self, store: &impl AsStoreRef) -> bool

Checks whether this Global can be used with the given context.

pub(crate) fn to_vm_extern(&self) -> VMExtern

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Global

fn clone(&self) -> Global

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Global

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<'a> Exportable<'a> for Global

fn get_self_from_extern(_extern: &'a Extern) -> Result<&'a Self, ExportError>

Implementation of how to get the export corresponding to the implementing type from an Instance by name.

impl From<Global> for Extern

fn from(r: Global) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl PartialEq<Global> for Global

fn eq(&self, other: &Global) -> bool

This method tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

This method tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
