Struct `AlignAs`

struct AlignAs<B: ?Sized, T> { ... }

A hack to align a smaller type B with a bigger type T.

The usual use of this is with B = [u8] and T = u32. That is, it permits aligning a sequence of bytes on a 4-byte boundary. This is useful in contexts where one wants to embed a serialized dense DFA into a Rust a program while guaranteeing the alignment required for the DFA.

See dense::DFA::from_bytes for an example of how to use this type.

Fields

_align: [T; 0]: A zero-sized field indicating the alignment we want.
bytes: B: A possibly non-sized field containing a sequence of bytes.
