Struct UninitSlice
pub struct UninitSlice(/* private fields */);
Expand description
Uninitialized byte slice.
Returned by BufMut::chunk_mut()
, the referenced byte slice may be
uninitialized. The wrapper provides safe access without introducing
undefined behavior.
The safety invariants of this wrapper are:
- Reading from an
UninitSlice
is undefined behavior. - Writing uninitialized bytes to an
UninitSlice
is undefined behavior.
The difference between &mut UninitSlice
and &mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]
is
that it is possible in safe code to write uninitialized bytes to an
&mut [MaybeUninit<u8>]
, which this type prohibits.
