Function try_zeroed_box

pub fn try_zeroed_box<T>() -> Result<Box<T>, ()> 
where
    T: Zeroable,

Available on crate feature dep_bytemuck only.

Allocates a Box<T> with all of the contents being zeroed out.

This uses the global allocator to create a zeroed allocation and then turns it into a Box. In other words, it’s 100% assured that the zeroed data won’t be put temporarily on the stack. You can make a box of any size without fear of a stack overflow.

Failure

This fails if the allocation fails.
