How to init a constant matrix with ndarray? [duplicate]

How can you make a safe static singleton in Rust? (2 answers)

How do I create a global, mutable singleton? (3 answers)

Closed 2 years ago.

I would like to have a matrix in ndarray as a constant available for other modules. Unfortunately, the construction function itself is not a constant function. Is there any way around that restriction?

Code:

extern crate ndarray;

use ndarray::prelude::*;

const foo: Array2<f32> = arr2(&[
    [1.26, 0.09], [0.79, 0.92]
]);

fn main() {
    println!("{}", foo);
}

Error:

error[E0015]: calls in constants are limited to constant functions, tuple structs and tuple variants
 --> src\main.rs:5:26

  |  __________________________^
6 | |     [1.26, 0.09], [0.79, 0.92]
7 | | ]);
  | |__^

回答1:

You can declare a immutable static variable instead of a const (since consts are compile time evaluated only), and then use lazy-static, which is

A macro for declaring lazily evaluated statics in Rust.

to run your function and set the static variable.

Example: Playground

#[macro_use]
extern crate lazy_static; // 1.0.1;

pub mod a_mod {
lazy_static! {
    pub static ref FOO : ::std::time::SystemTime = ::std::time::SystemTime::now();
}

}

fn main() {
        println!("{:?}", *a_mod::foo);
}

It would require you to deref the variable before you use it though.
