Performant size / pointer / region / data comparing. ### Basic use-case ```rust use mem_tools as mem; // Are two pointers are the same, not taking into accoint type. // Unlike `std::ptr::eq()` does not require arguments to have the same type. let src1 = ( 1, ); let src2 = ( 1, ); assert!( !mem::same_ptr( &src1, &src2 ) ); // Are two pointers points on data of the same size. let src1 = "abc"; let src2 = "cba"; assert!( mem::same_size( src1, src2 ) ); // Are two pointers points on the same region, ie same size and same pointer. // Does not require arguments to have the same type. let src1 = "abc"; let src2 = "abc"; assert!( mem::same_region( src1, src2 ) ); ``` ### To add to your project ```sh cargo add mem_tools ``` ### Try out from the repository ```sh git clone https://github.com/Wandalen/wTools cd wTools cd examples/mem_tools_trivial cargo run ``` # Sample [](https://discord.gg/m3YfbXpUUY) [](https://gitpod.io/#RUN_PATH=sample%2Frust%2Fmeta_tools_trivial,SAMPLE_FILE=.%2Fsrc%2Fmain.rs/https://github.com/Wandalen/wTools) [](https://docs.rs/meta_tools) ](https://docs.rs/meta_tools)
