如何复制而不是借用 i64 到 Rust 的闭包中？

Question

I have the following minimal example of my code:

fn main()
{
    let names : Vec<Vec<String>> = vec![
        vec!["Foo1".to_string(), "Foo2".to_string()],
        vec!["Bar1".to_string(), "Bar2".to_string()]
    ];
    let ids : Vec<i64> = vec![10, 20];

    names.iter().enumerate().flat_map(|(i,v)| {
        let id : i64 = ids[i];
        v.iter().map(|n| 
            (n.clone(), id)
        )
    });
}

Now, when I compile that with rustc I get the following error message:

error[E0597]: `id` does not live long enough
  --> main.rs:12:16
   |
11 |         v.iter().map(|n| 
   |                      --- capture occurs here
12 |             (n.clone(), id)
   |                         ^^ borrowed value does not live long enough
13 |         )
14 |     });
   |     -- borrowed value needs to live until here
   |     |
   |     borrowed value only lives until here

But in my understanding, id is of type i64 and should therefore be able to be copied into the capture, with would be exactly what I need?

I've also tried to inline the id variable but to no avail:

error[E0597]: `i` does not live long enough
  --> main.rs:11:21
   |
10 |             v.iter().map(|n| 
   |                          --- capture occurs here
11 |                 (n.clone(), ids[i])
   |                                 ^ borrowed value does not live long enough
12 |             )
13 |         });
   |         -- borrowed value needs to live until here
   |         |
   |         borrowed value only lives until here

So how can I copy my integer into the closure instead of borrowing it?

I tried using move , but rustc doesn't like that either:

error[E0507]: cannot move out of captured outer variable in an `FnMut` closure
  --> main.rs:10:17
   |
7  |         let ids : Vec<i64> = vec![10, 20];
   |             --- captured outer variable
...
10 |             v.iter().map(move |n| 
   |                          ^^^^^^^^ cannot move out of captured outer variable in an `FnMut` closure

So I'd somehow need to get rustc to only move/copy some but not the other variable?

Answer 1

When you create a closure in Rust, it captures the variables either by value or by reference. A mix of both is impossible. By default, it captures by reference, but with the move keyword, it captures by value ( ie it moves the captured variables inside the closure).

So, in your first code, you need to move id inside the closure:

fn main() {
    let names: Vec<Vec<String>> = vec![
        vec!["Foo1".to_string(), "Foo2".to_string()],
        vec!["Bar1".to_string(), "Bar2".to_string()],
    ];
    let ids: Vec<i64> = vec![10, 20];

    names.iter().enumerate().flat_map(|(i, v)| {
        let id: i64 = ids[i];
        v.iter().map(move |n| (n.clone(), id))
    });
}

Then you ask if you can "inline" ids :

fn main() {
    let names: Vec<Vec<String>> = vec![
        vec!["Foo1".to_string(), "Foo2".to_string()],
        vec!["Bar1".to_string(), "Bar2".to_string()],
    ];
    let ids: Vec<i64> = vec![10, 20];

    names.iter().enumerate().flat_map(|(i, v)| {
        v.iter().map(|n| (n.clone(), ids[i]))
    });
}

You cannot put ids at all in your inner closure, because you are already inside a FnMut closure (that requires exclusive access). Thus, you cannot borrow or move ids because it is already borrowed by the FnMut closure. Minimal reproduction:

fn main() {
    let mut i = 0;

    let mut closure = || {
        i = 2;
        || {
            println!("i = {}", i);
        }
    };

    closure()();
}

Answer 2

You can move the variable into closure with move keyword. Here you need to change the closure like:

v.iter().map(move |n|  // move is the keyword for moving variables into closure scope.
    (n.clone(), id)
)
