Struct CVec 

#[repr(C)]
pub struct CVec {
    pub ptr: *mut c_void,
    pub len: usize,
    pub cap: usize,
}

CVec is a C compatible struct that stores an opaque pointer to a block of memory, its length and the capacity of the vector it was allocated from.

Safety

Changing the values here may lead to undefined behavior when the memory is dropped.

Fields

ptr: *mut c_void

Opaque pointer to block of memory storing elements to access the elements cast it to the underlying type.

len: usize

The number of elements in the block.

cap: usize

The capacity of vector from which it was allocated. Used when deallocating the memory

Implementations

impl CVec

pub const fn empty() -> Self

Returns an empty CVec.

This is primarily useful for constructing a sentinel value that represents the absence of data when crossing the FFI boundary.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for CVec

fn clone(&self) -> CVec

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for CVec

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for CVec

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<T> From<Vec<T>> for CVec

Consumes and leaks the Vec, returning a mutable pointer to the contents as a CVec. The memory has been leaked and now exists for the lifetime of the program unless dropped manually. Note: drop the memory by reconstructing the vec using from_raw_parts method as shown in the test below.

fn from(data: Vec<T>) -> Self

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl Copy for CVec

impl Send for CVec
