Hello.
This is not related to a specific issue, tho I thought to do this as an alternate implementation of #1810 , and I mentioned it in #1809 .
This generalizes
Input
implementation over any type that implementsClone
. Which includesu8
as well as custom lexedToken
types common in parsers.My understanding is that any type that implements
Copy
, whenclone()
is called on it, just .. copies. No additional performance overhead. I would make this as a separate implementation from&[u8]
but you'd run into specialization.All the tests pass with no changes to them whatsoever.
