std::ptr::swap - Rust
Description: API documentation for the Rust `swap` fn in crate `std`.
Keywords: rust, rustlang, rust-lang, swap

# Function std::ptr::swap 1.0.0 [−] [src]

    pub unsafe fn swap<T>(x: *mut T, y: *mut T)

Swaps the values at two mutable locations of the same type, without deinitializing either. They may overlap, unlike `mem::swap` which is otherwise equivalent.

# Safety

This function copies the memory through the raw pointers passed to it as arguments.

Ensure that these pointers are valid before calling `swap`.

## 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` or `* -> vec`)
