Module std::memStable

Basic functions for dealing with memory

This module contains functions for querying the size and alignment of types, initializing and manipulating memory.

Functions

align_of	Returns the alignment in memory for a type.
align_of_val	Returns the alignment of the type of the value that _val points to.
copy_lifetime	Transforms lifetime of the second pointer to match the first.
copy_mut_lifetime	Transforms lifetime of the second mutable pointer to match the first.
drop	Disposes of a value.
forget	Move a value out of scope without running drop glue.
min_align_of	Returns the ABI-required minimum alignment of a type
min_align_of_val	Returns the ABI-required minimum alignment of the type of the value that _val points to
replace	Replace the value at a mutable location with a new one, returning the old value, without deinitialising or copying either one.
size_of	Returns the size of a type in bytes.
size_of_val	Returns the size of the type that _val points to in bytes.
swap	Swap the values at two mutable locations of the same type, without deinitialising or copying either one.
transmute	Unsafely transforms a value of one type into a value of another type.
transmute_copy	Interprets src as &U, and then reads src without moving the contained value.
uninitialized	Create an uninitialized value.
zeroed	Create a value initialized to zero.
