Function dangling

pub const fn dangling<T>() -> *const T

Available on crate feature std only.

Creates a new pointer that is dangling, but non-null and well-aligned.

This is useful for initializing types which lazily allocate, like Vec::new does.

Note that the pointer value may potentially represent a valid pointer to a T, which means this must not be used as a “not yet initialized” sentinel value. Types that lazily allocate must track initialization by some other means.
