I think the API additions look sane to me, even if they're not official String
API.
Err(_) => return Err(CapacityError::new(())), | ||
} | ||
} | ||
self.set_len(len); |

Why is this implemented as unsafe
instead of using ArrayString::try_push
?

Because I think that this function should be as performant as possible, and calling try_push
will modify the len
on every iteration. This way we can set it once when we're done, which seems to be more efficient.

Could you write a quick benchmark verifying that this improves performance over the naive try_push
loop?

Sure, here are results on my machune:
test try_extend_bench ... bench: 28 ns/iter (+/- 2) = 146285 MB/s
test try_push_loop ... bench: 336 ns/iter (+/- 13) = 12190 MB/s
I also fixed the other benches (at they were all optimized on my machine in just one LOAD of a capacity constant)
This is the best effort implementation that allows pushing iterator into
ArrayString
. There is noTryFromIterator
trait yet andTryFrom<I>
breaks blanketTryFrom<T>
impl in std, so this is the next best thing - just a couple of inherent struct functions.Related #142
