Module :: mem_tools

Collection of tools to manipulate memory.

Performant size / pointer / region / data comparing.

Basic use-case

use mem_tools as mem;

// Are two pointers the same, not taking into account type.
// Unlike `std::ptr::eq()` does not require arguments to have the same type.
let src1 = ( 1, );
let src2 = ( 1, );
assert!( !mem::same_ptr( &src1, &src2 ) );

// Are two pointers points on data of the same size.
let src1 = "abc";
let src2 = "cba";
assert!( mem::same_size( src1, src2 ) );

// Are two pointers points on the same region, ie same size and same pointer.
// Does not require arguments to have the same type.
let src1 = "abc";
let src2 = "abc";
assert!( mem::same_region( src1, src2 ) );
