Expand description
Implementations of type-erasure tools, which store fully non-generic data on the heap.
Current features include:
§Erased Boxes
These are useful for cases where Box<dyn Any> doesn’t fulfill your needs, including
non-'static data or wanting to store the data in one pointer even when unsized. As
a trade-off, there is no safe way to retrieve the data, as the user must already know the
type and lifetimes involved and verify them without the help of the compiler.
§Erased Pointer
The unowned equivalent to an erased box. Basically just a pointer-meta pair, that ensures the meta is handled correctly on destruction.
