rustHow to get inner enum value in Rust


To get the inner enum value in Rust, you can use the match expression. The match expression allows you to compare a value against a list of patterns and execute code based on which pattern matches. For example, if you have an enum with two variants, you can use the match expression to get the inner enum value:

rust
enum MyEnum {
    Variant1(String),
    Variant2(i32),
}

let my_enum = MyEnum::Variant1("Hello".to_string());

match my_enum {
    MyEnum::Variant1(s) => println!("Variant1: {}", s),
    MyEnum::Variant2(i) => println!("Variant2: {}", i),
}

Output example:

Variant1: Hello

Explanation

The match expression is used to compare the value of my_enum against the two variants of the enum. If the value is MyEnum::Variant1, the code inside the first block is executed, printing the string Hello. If the value is MyEnum::Variant2, the code inside the second block is executed, printing the integer value.
