sourcepub unsafe fn as_uninit_ref<'a>(&self) -> &'a MaybeUninit<T>
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_as_uninit
)
pub unsafe fn as_uninit_ref<'a>(&self) -> &'a MaybeUninit<T>
ptr_as_uninit
)Returns a shared references to the value. In contrast to as_ref
, this does not require
that the value has to be initialized.
For the mutable counterpart see as_uninit_mut
.
Safety
When calling this method, you have to ensure that all of the following is true:
-
The pointer must be properly aligned.
-
It must be “dereferenceable” in the sense defined in the module documentation.
-
You must enforce Rust’s aliasing rules, since the returned lifetime
'a
is arbitrarily chosen and does not necessarily reflect the actual lifetime of the data. In particular, while this reference exists, the memory the pointer points to must not get mutated (except insideUnsafeCell
).
This applies even if the result of this method is unused!
1.25.0 · sourcepub unsafe fn as_ref<'a>(&self) -> &'a T
pub unsafe fn as_ref<'a>(&self) -> &'a T
Returns a shared reference to the value. If the value may be uninitialized, as_uninit_ref
must be used instead.
For the mutable counterpart see as_mut
.

sourcepub unsafe fn as_uninit_slice<'a>(&self) -> &'a [MaybeUninit<T>]
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_as_uninit
)
pub unsafe fn as_uninit_slice<'a>(&self) -> &'a [MaybeUninit<T>]
ptr_as_uninit
)Returns a shared reference to a slice of possibly uninitialized values. In contrast to
as_ref
, this does not require that the value has to be initialized.
For the mutable counterpart see as_uninit_slice_mut
.
Safety
When calling this method, you have to ensure that all of the following is true:
-
The pointer must be valid for reads for
ptr.len() * mem::size_of::<T>()
many bytes, and it must be properly aligned. This means in particular:-
The entire memory range of this slice must be contained within a single allocated object! Slices can never span across multiple allocated objects.
-
The pointer must be aligned even for zero-length slices. One reason for this is that enum layout optimizations may rely on references (including slices of any length) being aligned and non-null to distinguish them from other data. You can obtain a pointer that is usable as
data
for zero-length slices usingNonNull::dangling()
.
-
-
The total size
ptr.len() * mem::size_of::<T>()
of the slice must be no larger thanisize::MAX
. See the safety documentation ofpointer::offset

sourcepub unsafe fn as_uninit_slice_mut<'a>(&self) -> &'a mut [MaybeUninit<T>]
🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (ptr_as_uninit
)
pub unsafe fn as_uninit_slice_mut<'a>(&self) -> &'a mut [MaybeUninit<T>]
ptr_as_uninit
)Returns a unique reference to a slice of possibly uninitialized values. In contrast to
as_mut

Safety
When calling this method, you have to ensure that all of the following is true:
-
The pointer must be valid for reads and writes for
ptr.len() * mem::size_of::<T>()
many bytes, and it must be properly aligned. This means in particular:-
The entire memory range of this slice must be contained within a single allocated object! Slices can never span across multiple allocated objects.
-

You must enforce Rust’s aliasing rules, since the returned lifetime
'a
is arbitrarily chosen and does not necessarily reflect the actual lifetime of the data. In particular, while this reference exists, the memory the pointer points to must not get accessed (read or written) through any other pointer.
This applies even if the result of this method is unused!
