pub struct ManuallyDrop<T> where
    T: ?Sized,  { /* fields omitted */ }

[−] Expand description

A wrapper to inhibit compiler from automatically calling T’s destructor.

This wrapper is 0-cost.

Examples

This wrapper helps with explicitly documenting the drop order dependencies between fields of the type:

use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
struct Peach;
struct Banana;
struct Melon;
struct FruitBox {
    // Immediately clear there’s something non-trivial going on with these fields.
    peach: ManuallyDrop<Peach>,
    melon: Melon, // Field that’s independent of the other two.
    banana: ManuallyDrop<Banana>,
}

impl Drop for FruitBox {
    fn drop(&mut self) {
        unsafe {
            // Explicit ordering in which field destructors are run specified in the intuitive
            // location – the destructor of the structure containing the fields.
            // Moreover, one can now reorder fields within the struct however much they want.
            ManuallyDrop::drop(&mut self.peach);
            ManuallyDrop::drop(&mut self.banana);
        }
        // After destructor for `FruitBox` runs (this function), the destructor for Melon gets
        // invoked in the usual manner, as it is not wrapped in `ManuallyDrop`.
    }
}

Methods

impl<T> ManuallyDrop<T>

[−]

pub const fn new(value: T) -> ManuallyDrop<T>

[−]

Wrap a value to be manually dropped.

Examples

use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
ManuallyDrop::new(Box::new(()));

pub fn into_inner(slot: ManuallyDrop<T>) -> T

[−]

Extract the value from the ManuallyDrop container.

This allows the value to be dropped again.

Examples

use std::mem::ManuallyDrop;
let x = ManuallyDrop::new(Box::new(()));
let _: Box<()> = ManuallyDrop::into_inner(x); // This drops the `Box`.

impl<T> ManuallyDrop<T> where     T: ?Sized,

[−]

pub unsafe fn drop(slot: &mut ManuallyDrop<T>)

[−]

Manually drops the contained value.

If you have ownership of the value, you can use ManuallyDrop::into_inner instead.

Safety

This function runs the destructor of the contained value and thus the wrapped value now represents uninitialized data. It is up to the user of this method to ensure the uninitialized data is not actually used.
