# Function std::intrinsics::transmute [−] [src]

    pub unsafe extern "rust-intrinsic" fn transmute<T, U>(e: T) -> U

Unsafely transforms a value of one type into a value of another type.

Both types must have the same size.

# Examples

fn main() { use std::mem; let array: &[u8] = unsafe { mem::transmute("Rust") }; assert_eq!(array, [82, 117, 115, 116]); }

    use std::mem;

    let array: &[u8] = unsafe { mem::transmute("Rust") };
    assert_eq!(array, [82, 117, 115, 116]);

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g. `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g. `vec -> usize`)
