Crate stack_ptr [−] [src]

Provides StackPtr, an owned pointer to stack-allocated data. Create one using the provided stack_ptr! macro:

stack_ptr! {
    let slice: StackPtr<[_]> = StackPtr::new([1,2,3,4,5]);
}

Macros

coerce_stackptr	An implementation of `std::ops::CoerceUnsized` on stable rust. On nightly, you can convert a `StackPtr<T>` into a `StackPtr<U>` if `T` implements `U`, with `let sp = sp as StackPtr<U>;`, but this requires the unstable `CoerceUnsized` trait. On stable you can do `let sp = coerce_stackptr!(sp, U);`.
stack_ptr	Safely declares a StackPtr<$ty> with an appropriate lifetime to the data contained in $expr.

An owning pointer to stack-allocated data. Similar to Box, except Box is heap-allocated.
