Module std::cast

Unsafe casting functions

Functions

bump_box_refcount	Force-increment the reference count on a shared box. If used carelessly, this can leak the box.
copy_lifetime	Transforms lifetime of the second pointer to match the first.
copy_lifetime_vec	Transforms lifetime of the second pointer to match the first.
copy_mut_lifetime	Transforms lifetime of the second pointer to match the first.
forget	Move a thing into the void
transmute	Transform a value of one type into a value of another type. Both types must have the same size and alignment.
transmute_copy	Casts the value at `src` to U. The two types must have the same length.
transmute_immut	Coerce a mutable reference to be immutable.
transmute_immut_unsafe	Coerce an immutable reference to be mutable.
transmute_mut	Coerce an immutable reference to be mutable.
transmute_mut_region	Coerce a borrowed mutable pointer to have an arbitrary associated region.
transmute_mut_unsafe	Coerce an immutable reference to be mutable.
transmute_region	Coerce a borrowed pointer to have an arbitrary associated region.
unsafe_copy	Forces a copy of a value, even if that value is considered noncopyable.
