Variants§

§

Direct

The tag directly stores the discriminant, but possibly with a smaller layout (so converting the tag to the discriminant can require sign extension).

§

Niche

Fields

§untagged_variant: V
§niche_variants: RangeInclusive<V>
§niche_start: u128

Niche (values invalid for a type) encoding the discriminant: Discriminant and variant index coincide. The variant untagged_variant contains a niche at an arbitrary offset (field tag_field of the enum), which for a variant with discriminant d is set to (d - niche_variants.start).wrapping_add(niche_start).

For example, Option<(usize, &T)> is represented such that None has a null pointer for the second tuple field, and Some is the identity function (with a non-null reference).

Layout§

Note: Unable to compute type layout, possibly due to this type having generic parameters. Layout can only be computed for concrete, fully-instantiated types.
