Crate safe_transmute

This crate contains checked implementations of transmute().

Examples

View bytes as a series of u16s:

assert_eq!(guarded_transmute_many::<u16>(&[0x00, 0x01,
                                           0x12, 0x34,
                                           // Spare byte, unused
                                           0x00]),
           &[0x0100, 0x3412]);

View bytes as an f64:

assert_eq!(guarded_transmute::<f64>(&[0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00]),
           0.0);

Functions

guarded_transmute	Transmute a byte slice into a single instance of a Copyable type
guarded_transmute_many	View a byte slice as a slice of an arbitrary type.
