static_assertions 0.3.3

Compile-time assertions to ensure that invariants are met.
Documentation
/// Asserts that types are equal in size.
///
/// When performing operations such as pointer casts or dealing with [`usize`]
/// versus [`u64`] versus [`u32`], the size of your types matter. That is where
/// this macro comes into play.
///
/// # Alternatives
///
/// There also exists [`assert_eq_size_val`](macro.assert_eq_size_val.html) and
/// [`assert_eq_size_ptr`](macro.assert_eq_size_ptr.html). Instead of specifying
/// types to compare, values' sizes can be directly compared against each other.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// On stable Rust, using the macro requires a unique “label” when used in a
/// module scope:
///
#[cfg_attr(feature = "nightly", doc = "```ignore")]
#[cfg_attr(not(feature = "nightly"), doc = "```")]
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate static_assertions;
/// # fn main() {}
/// assert_eq_size!(bytes; (u8, u8), u16);
/// ```
///
/// The [labeling limitation](index.html#limitations) is not necessary if
/// compiling on nightly Rust with the `nightly` feature enabled:
///
#[cfg_attr(feature = "nightly", doc = "```")]
#[cfg_attr(not(feature = "nightly"), doc = "```ignore")]
/// #![feature(underscore_const_names)]
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate static_assertions;
///
/// assert_eq_size!(u32, [u16; 2]);
///
/// fn main() {
///     // Supports unlimited arguments without hitting recursion limit
///     assert_eq_size!([u8; 4], (u16, u16), u32);
/// }
/// ```
///
/// The following produces a compilation failure because `u32` has 4 times the
/// size of `u8`:
///
/// ```compile_fail
/// # #[macro_use] extern crate static_assertions;
/// # fn main() {
/// assert_eq_size!(u32, u8);
/// # }
/// ```
