# Macro smallvec::smallvec [−] [src]

    macro_rules! smallvec {
        (@one $x:expr) => { ... };
        ($elem:expr; $n:expr) => { ... };
        ($($x:expr),*$(,)*) => { ... };
    }

Creates a `SmallVec` containing the arguments.

`smallvec!` allows `SmallVec`s to be defined with the same syntax as array expressions. There are two forms of this macro:

- Create a `SmallVec` containing a given list of elements:

    let v: SmallVec<[_; 128]> = smallvec![1, 2, 3];
    assert_eq!(v[0], 1);
    assert_eq!(v[1], 2);
    assert_eq!(v[2], 3);

- Create a `SmallVec` from a given element and size:

    let v: SmallVec<[_; 0x8000]> = smallvec![1; 3];
    assert_eq!(v, SmallVec::from_buf([1, 1, 1]));

Note that unlike array expressions this syntax supports all elements which implement `Clone` and the number of elements doesn’t have to be a constant.

This will use `clone` to duplicate an expression, so one should be careful using this with types having a nonstandard `Clone` implementation. For example, `smallvec![Rc::new(1); 5]` will create a vector of five references to the same boxed integer value, not five references pointing to independently boxed integers.
