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

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

    pub unsafe extern "rust-intrinsic" fn init<T>() -> T

🔬 This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`core_intrinsics`)

intrinsics are unlikely to ever be stabilized, instead they should be used through stabilized interfaces in the rest of the standard library

Creates a value initialized to zero.

`init` is unsafe because it returns a zeroed-out datum, which is unsafe unless T is `Copy`. Also, even if T is `Copy`, an all-zero value may not correspond to any legitimate state for the type in question.

## 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`)
