Explicit impl Clone for tx to avoid T: Clone (#865)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
`#[derive(Clone)]` on a type `struct Foo<T>` adds an impl that requires that
`T: Clone`:

```rust
impl<T: Clone> Clone for Foo<T>
```

which is unfortunate in the case of senders, because we don't want to require
that the items being sent are `Clone` for the channel sender to be `Clone`.
This PR adds an explicit `impl Clone` for the bounded and unbounded sender
types which does not have the `T: Clone` bound.

Note that this is _also_ an issue with `#[derive(Debug)]`, but that one is
harder to work around as `chan::Tx` _also_ has `#[derive(Debug)]`, as does
`chan::Chan`, so we'd have to add explicit impls for all of them to make
progress.
