1.38版新增std::any::type_name

use std::any::type_name;

fn type_of<T>(_: T) -> &'static str {
    type_name::<T>()
}
fn main() {
    let x = 21;
    let y = 2.5;
    println!("{}", type_of(&y));
    println!("{}", type_of(x));
}

在稳定rust中有一个@ChrisMorgan答案可以获得近似类型(“float”)，在夜间rust中有一个@ShubhamJain答案可以通过不稳定函数获得精确类型(“f64”)。

现在有一种方法可以得到精确的类型(即在f32和f64之间决定)在稳定的rust:

fn main() {
    let a = 5.;
    let _: () = unsafe { std::mem::transmute(a) };
}

结果

error[E0512]: cannot transmute between types of different sizes, or dependently-sized types
 --> main.rs:3:27
  |
3 |     let _: () = unsafe { std::mem::transmute(a) };
  |                           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
  |
  = note: source type: `f64` (64 bits)
  = note: target type: `()` (0 bits)

更新

涡轮鱼的变异

fn main() {
    let a = 5.;
    unsafe { std::mem::transmute::<_, ()>(a) }
}

略短，但可读性稍差。

您还可以使用println中的变量!("{:?}”,var)。如果没有为该类型实现Debug，则可以在编译器的错误消息中看到该类型:

mod some {
    pub struct SomeType;
}

fn main() {
    let unknown_var = some::SomeType;
    println!("{:?}", unknown_var);
}

虽然很脏，但很管用。

短篇小说;

fn tyof<T>(_: &T) -> String {
    std::any::type_name::<T>().into()
}

很长的故事;

trait Type {
    fn type_of(&self) -> String;
}

macro_rules! Type {
    ($($ty:ty),*) => {
        $(
            impl Type for $ty {
                fn type_of(&self) -> String {
                    stringify!($ty).into()
                }
            }
        )*
    }
}

#[rustfmt::skip]
Type!(
    u8, i8, u16, i16, u32, i32, i64, u64, i128, String, [()], (), Vec<()>, &u8, &i8, &u16, &i16, &u32, &i32, &i64, &u64, &i128, &str, &[()], &Vec<()>, &() 
    // add any struct, enum or type you want
);

macro_rules! tyof {
    ($var: expr) => {{
        $var.type_of()
    }};
}

fn main() {
    let x = "Hello world!";
    println!("{}", tyof!(x));
    // or
    println!("{}", x.type_of());

    let x = 5;
    println!("{}", tyof!(x));
    // or
    println!("{}", x.type_of());
}

如果你只是想找出一个变量的类型，并愿意在编译时执行，你可能会导致一个错误，并让编译器拾取它。

例如，将变量设置为一个无效的类型:

let mut my_number: () = 32.90;
// let () = x; would work too

error[E0308]: mismatched types
 --> src/main.rs:2:29
  |
2 |     let mut my_number: () = 32.90;
  |                             ^^^^^ expected (), found floating-point number
  |
  = note: expected type `()`
             found type `{float}`

或者调用无效的方法:

let mut my_number = 32.90;
my_number.what_is_this();

error[E0599]: no method named `what_is_this` found for type `{float}` in the current scope
 --> src/main.rs:3:15
  |
3 |     my_number.what_is_this();
  |               ^^^^^^^^^^^^

或访问无效字段:

let mut my_number = 32.90;
my_number.what_is_this

error[E0610]: `{float}` is a primitive type and therefore doesn't have fields
 --> src/main.rs:3:15
  |
3 |     my_number.what_is_this
  |               ^^^^^^^^^^^^

These reveal the type, which in this case is actually not fully resolved. It’s called “floating-point variable” in the first example, and “{float}” in all three examples; this is a partially resolved type which could end up f32 or f64, depending on how you use it. “{float}” is not a legal type name, it’s a placeholder meaning “I’m not completely sure what this is”, but it is a floating-point number. In the case of floating-point variables, if you don't constrain it, it will default to f64¹. (An unqualified integer literal will default to i32.)

参见:

编译器错误消息中的{integer}或{float}是什么?

¹可能仍然有一些让编译器困惑的方法，使它无法在f32和f64之间做出决定;我不确定。它曾经像32.90.eq(&32.90)一样简单，但现在两者都被视为f64，并且可以愉快地进行，所以我不知道。

如果你只是想在交互开发过程中知道变量的类型，我强烈建议在你的编辑器或ide中使用rls (rust语言服务器)。然后，您可以简单地永久启用或切换悬停能力，只需将光标放在变量上。一个小对话框将显示关于变量的信息，包括类型。
