Arc Or Mutex as a field in struct

[farbodpm]

I have a struct having a field which is Arc<Mutex<&mut dyn domthing>> or Mutex<&mut dyn somethin>> according my target. I dont know how can I implement this struct with generic. Any Idea?

[protalker123]

how about #[cfg(...)]s?

[farbodpm]

Is that the only option?

You can also make your struct generic over T: Borrow<Mutex<…>>

[farbodpm]

would you please give me an example?

Playground

use std::{
    borrow::Borrow,
    fmt::Display,
    sync::{Arc, Mutex},
};

struct Sample<T>(T);

impl<'a, T: Borrow<Mutex<&'a dyn Display>>> Sample<T> {
    fn print(&self) {
        println!("{}", self.0.borrow().lock().unwrap());
    }
}

fn main() {
    let by_value: Sample<Mutex<&dyn Display>> = Sample(Mutex::new(&"borrow"));
    by_value.print();

    let arc: Sample<Arc<Mutex<&dyn Display>>> = Sample(Arc::new(Mutex::new(&"arc")));
    arc.print();
}
