hybrid-array 0.2.3

Hybrid typenum-based and const generic array types designed to provide the flexibility of typenum-based expressions while also allowing interoperability and a transition path to const generics

/// Trait which associates a [`usize`] size and `ArrayType` with a
/// `typenum`-provided [`Unsigned`] integer.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// `ArrayType` MUST be an array with a number of elements exactly equal to
/// [`Unsigned::USIZE`]. Breaking this requirement will cause undefined behavior.
///
/// NOTE: This trait is effectively sealed and can not be implemented by third-party crates.
/// It is implemented only for a number of types defined in [`typenum::consts`].
pub unsafe trait ArraySize: Unsigned {
    /// Array type which corresponds to this size.

    /// [`ArraySize::USIZE`][`typenum::Unsigned::USIZE`].

/// Associates an [`ArraySize`] with a given type. Can be used to accept `[T; N]` const generic
/// arguments and convert to [`Array`] internally.

/// This trait is also the magic glue that makes the [`ArrayN`][`crate::ArrayN`] type alias work.
///
/// # Example
///
/// ```
/// use hybrid_array::{ArrayN, AssocArraySize};
///
/// pub fn example<const N: usize>(bytes: &[u8; N])

///     [u8; N]: AssocArraySize + AsRef<ArrayN<u8, N>>
