Below are some common type conversions in Sway:
Identity
let identity_from_b256: Identity = Identity::Address(Address::from(b256_address));
let identity_from_address: Identity = Identity::Address(address);
let identity_from_contract_id: Identity = Identity::ContractId(contract_id);
Identity
to ContractId
or Address
match my_identity {
Identity::Address(address) => log(address),
Identity::ContractId(contract_id) => log(contract_id),
};
ContractId
or Address
to b256
let b256_from_address: b256 = address.into();
let b256_from_contract_id: b256 = contract_id.into();
b256
to ContractId
or Address
let address_from_b256: Address = Address::from(b256_address);
let contract_id_from_b256: ContractId = ContractId::from(b256_address);
str
to str[]
use std::primitive_conversions::str::*;
let fuel_str: str = "fuel";
let fuel_str_array: str[4] = fuel_str.try_as_str_array().unwrap();
str[]
to str
let fuel_str_array: str[4] = __to_str_array("fuel");
let fuel_str: str = from_str_array(fuel_str_array);
