Ownership en Borrowing in Rust: Volledige Gids

// Demonstration of the three fundamental rules

fn main() {
    // Rule 1: Each value has exactly ONE owner
    let s1 = String::from("hello");  // s1 is the sole owner

    // Rule 2: There can only be one owner at a time
    let s2 = s1;  // Ownership transferred (moved) from s1 to s2
    // println!("{}", s1);  // Compile ERROR: s1 no longer exists
    println!("s2 = {}", s2);  // Only s2 is valid now

    // Rule 3: When the owner goes out of scope, the value is dropped
    {
        let s3 = String::from("temporary");
        println!("s3 inside block = {}", s3);
    }  // s3 is automatically freed here (drop is called)
    // println!("{}", s3);  // ERROR: s3 no longer exists
}

// Distinction between Copy types and Move types

fn main() {
    // Copy types: values stored on the stack, known size
    let x: i32 = 42;
    let y = x;  // x is COPIED, not moved
    println!("x = {}, y = {}", x, y);  // Both are valid

    // Other Copy types: f64, bool, char, tuples of Copy types
    let point = (3.0, 4.0);
    let point_copy = point;  // Tuple copy
    println!("Original: {:?}, Copy: {:?}", point, point_copy);

    // Move types: values on the heap, dynamic size
    let s1 = String::from("owned");
    let s2 = s1;  // s1 is MOVED to s2
    // println!("{}", s1);  // ERROR: value moved
    println!("s2 = {}", s2);

    // Vec, HashMap, Box are also Move types
    let vec1 = vec![1, 2, 3];
    let vec2 = vec1;  // Move, not copy
    // println!("{:?}", vec1);  // ERROR
    println!("vec2 = {:?}", vec2);
}

// Explicit clone to duplicate Move types
fn explicit_clone() {
    let original = String::from("important data");
    let clone = original.clone();  // Explicit duplication (memory cost)

    println!("Original: {}", original);  // Still valid
    println!("Clone: {}", clone);  // Independent copy
}

// Immutable and mutable references

fn main() {
    let s = String::from("hello");

    // Immutable reference: read-only, multiple allowed
    let len = calculate_length(&s);  // Immutable borrow
    println!("'{}' has {} characters", s, len);  // s still valid

    // Multiple simultaneous immutable references: OK
    let r1 = &s;
    let r2 = &s;
    let r3 = &s;
    println!("r1={}, r2={}, r3={}", r1, r2, r3);
}

fn calculate_length(s: &String) -> usize {
    // s is a reference, not the owner
    s.len()
}  // s goes out of scope but doesn't drop anything (not owner)

// Mutable references: modification allowed
fn mutable_borrowing() {
    let mut s = String::from("hello");

    change(&mut s);  // Mutable borrow
    println!("After modification: {}", s);
}

fn change(s: &mut String) {
    s.push_str(", world!");  // Modification via mutable reference

// Strict borrow checker rules

fn main() {

    let mut s = String::from("hello");

    let r1 = &s;      // Immutable reference: OK
    let r2 = &s;      // Another immutable reference: OK
    // let r3 = &mut s;  // ERROR: cannot borrow as mutable
    println!("{} and {}", r1, r2);

    // AFTER using r1 and r2, they are "dead"
    let r3 = &mut s;  // Now OK: r1 and r2 no longer used
    r3.push_str(" world");
    println!("{}", r3);

    // RULE 2: Only one mutable reference at a time
    let mut data = String::from("exclusive");
    let ref1 = &mut data;
    // let ref2 = &mut data;  // ERROR: already borrowed mutably
    ref1.push_str("!");
    println!("{}", ref1);

// RULE 3: References cannot outlive the data
fn dangling_reference_prevented() {
    let reference;
    {
        let s = String::from("short-lived");
        // reference = &s;  // ERROR: s doesn't live long enough
    }
    // s is dropped here, reference would be invalid

    // Solution: move the value out of the scope
    let owned_outside;
    {
        let s = String::from("moved out");
        owned_outside = s;  // Move, not reference

// Practical patterns for ownership management
