Function safe_transmute::guarded_transmute_vec_permissive

pub unsafe fn guarded_transmute_vec_permissive<T>(bytes: Vec<u8>) -> Vec<T>

Trasform a byte vector into a vector of an arbitrary type.

The vector's allocated byte buffer will be reused when possible, and have as many instances of a type as will fit, rounded down. Extraneous data is ignored.

Examples

// Little-endian
assert_eq!(guarded_transmute_vec_permissive::<u16>(vec![0x00, 0x01, 0x00, 0x02]),
           vec![0x0100, 0x0200]);
assert_eq!(guarded_transmute_vec_permissive::<u32>(vec![0x04, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00, 0xED]),
           vec![0x0000_0004]);
assert_eq!(guarded_transmute_vec_permissive::<u16>(vec![0xED]), vec![]);
