我如何在 Rust 中使用带有宏的代码字符串上使用类似正则表达式的过程？

Question

I've written multiple functions in my code that have snippets that are duplicated three times, for red blue and green. It's getting pretty old and cluttering up my code, and I would prefer to compress them each into one snippet encapsulated in a macro. However, I can't find any information in the book about a macro that would operate like this, even though generating code is their sole purpose. Ideally, it would look something like this:

rgb_triple!("
for i in 0..(data.dimensions.width * data.dimensions.height) {
    $color_map[i] = 255;
}
")

expanding to this:

for i in 0..(data.dimensions.width * data.dimensions.height) {
    red_map[i] = 255;
}
for i in 0..(data.dimensions.width * data.dimensions.height) {
    green_map[i] = 255;
}
for i in 0..(data.dimensions.width * data.dimensions.height) {
    blue_map[i] = 255;
}

What would be the best way for me to do this (even if this isn't)?

Answer 1

I would write a function that takes the color_map as mutable reference. Something like:

fn do_it(color_map: &mut Vec<u32>, data: &Data) {
    for i in 0..(data.dimensions.width * data.dimensions.height) {
        color_map[i] = 255;
    }
}
