Module Unique_id.IntSource

An abstract unique identifier based on ordinary OCaml integers. Be careful, this may easily overflow on 32-bit platforms! Int63 is a safer choice for portability.

Int is useful when one is passing unique ids to C and needs a guarantee as to their representation. Int is always represented as an integer, while Int63 is either an integer (on 64-bit machines) or a pointer (on 32-bit machines).

The generated ids will therefore be fast to generate and not use much memory. If you do not have very stringent requirements on the size, speed, and ordering of your IDs then you should use the UUIDM library instead, which will give you a truly unique id, even amongst different runs and different machines.

Parameters

Signature

Sourcetype t = private Base.Int.t

The sexps and strings look like integers.

include Bin_prot.Binable.S with type t := t
include Bin_prot.Binable.S_only_functions with type t := t
Sourceval bin_size_t : t Bin_prot.Size.sizer
Sourceval bin_write_t : t Bin_prot.Write.writer
Sourceval bin_read_t : t Bin_prot.Read.reader
Sourceval __bin_read_t__ : (int -> t) Bin_prot.Read.reader

This function only needs implementation if t exposed to be a polymorphic variant. Despite what the type reads, this does *not* produce a function after reading; instead it takes the constructor tag (int) before reading and reads the rest of the variant t afterwards.

Sourceval bin_shape_t : Bin_prot.Shape.t
include Ppx_hash_lib.Hashable.S with type t := t
include Sexplib0.Sexpable.S with type t := t
Sourceval t_of_sexp : Sexplib0.Sexp.t -> t
Sourceval sexp_of_t : t -> Sexplib0.Sexp.t
include Typerep_lib.Typerepable.S with type t := t
Sourceval typename_of_t : t Typerep_lib.Typename.t

Caveat: values created with of_float, of_sexp, or of_string may be equal to previously created values.

include Comparable.S_binable with type t := t
include Base.Comparable.S with type t := t
include Base.Comparisons.S with type t := t
include Base.Comparisons.Infix with type t := t
Sourceval (>=) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval (<=) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval (=) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval (>) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval (<) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval (<>) : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval equal : t -> t -> bool
Sourceval compare : t -> t -> int

compare t1 t2 returns 0 if t1 is equal to t2, a negative integer if t1 is less than t2, and a positive integer if t1 is greater than t2.

Sourceval min : t -> t -> t
Sourceval max : t -> t -> t
Sourceval ascending : t -> t -> int

ascending is identical to compare. descending x y = ascending y x. These are intended to be mnemonic when used like List.sort ~compare:ascending and List.sort ~cmp:descending, since they cause the list to be sorted in ascending or descending order, respectively.

Sourceval descending : t -> t -> int
Sourceval between : t -> low:t -> high:t -> bool

between t ~low ~high means low <= t <= high

Sourceval clamp_exn : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t

clamp_exn t ~min ~max returns t', the closest value to t such that between t' ~low:min ~high:max is true.

Raises if not (min <= max).

Sourceval clamp : t -> min:t -> max:t -> t Base.Or_error.t
include Base.Comparator.S with type t := t
Sourcetype comparator_witness
Sourceval validate_lbound : min:t Maybe_bound.t -> t Validate.check
Sourceval validate_ubound : max:t Maybe_bound.t -> t Validate.check
Sourceval validate_bound : min:t Maybe_bound.t -> max:t Maybe_bound.t -> t Validate.check
include Comparator.S with type t := t with type comparator_witness := comparator_witness
include Hashable.S_binable with type t := t
include Ppx_hash_lib.Hashable.S with type t := t
Sourceval hash_fold_t : Base.Hash.state -> t -> Base.Hash.state
Sourceval hashable : t Base.Hashable.t
Sourcemodule Table : Hashtbl.S_binable with type key = t
Sourcemodule Hash_set : Hash_set.S_binable with type elt = t
Sourcemodule Hash_queue : Hash_queue.S with type key = t
include Interfaces.Intable with type t := t
Sourceval of_int_exn : int -> t
Sourceval to_int_exn : t -> int
include Interfaces.Stringable with type t := t
Sourceval of_string : string -> t
Sourceval to_string : t -> string
Sourceval create : Base.Unit.t -> t

Always returns a value that is not equal to any other value created with create.
