Function transmute_vec_basic 

pub fn transmute_vec_basic<I: Pod, O: Pod>(
    input: Vec<I>,
) -> Result<Vec<O>, (Vec<I>, TransmuteError)>

If alignment is the same this function is preferred over transmute_vec.

Errors

1. The length of the vector wouldn’t fit the type.

let input: Vec<u8> = vec![1, 2, 3];
let output: Vec<u16, _> = transmute_vec_basic(input).unwrap();

2. The capacity can’t be converted to units of the output type.

let input: Vec<u8> = Vec::with_capacity(3);
let output: Vec<u16, _> = transmute_vec_basic(input).unwrap();

Length, then capacity will be returned.

ZSTs

1. Anything -> ZST
   • Keeps length, drops data.
2. ZST -> Non ZST
   • New Vec from previous allocator.
3. Just don’t do this.

Panics

Panics if the alignment is not the same.

Otherwise this acts exactly the same as transmute_vec.
