Expand description
A generalization of Clone
to borrowed data.
Some types make it possible to go from borrowed to owned, usually by
implementing the Clone
trait. But Clone
works only for going from &T
to T
. The ToOwned
trait generalizes Clone
to construct owned data
from any borrow of a given type.
