Pinning & In-place Construction of Option (and Result?)
lamarrr opened this issue · 0 comments
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I have types that are not relocatable in my project (pinned to a memory address) and need to be able to construct Option
of them. we use a lot of std::move
that don't necessarily move the data but construct r-value references to them.
Result
doesn't need pinning since it requires relocation (i.e. it is a return channel).
This would also mean removing our std::is_move_constructible_v
requirement on Option
, and also allow creating an Option<T>
from Some(Args&&)
. We'd need to make Some
be able to perfectly forward these arguments.
Describe the solution you'd like
Be able to pin Option
to a memory address.
