Thank you for the answers.
2. How to allocate a mutable managed vector dynamically?
I can create an owned vector with: let a = vec::from_elem(..);
I can create a managed vector with: let a = at_vec::from_elem(..);
You cannot. Because the elements of a managed vector are stored inline
And in both cases, the sizes would not be known until runtime, so they
could not be represented as [type * cnt]. In both cases, growing the
vector is of no importance.
Oh, I think perhaps Niko overestimated what you were asking for. One
can't create a _resizable_ @[], due to the managed
Hi,
I'm trying to get my head around lifetime parameters. I think I mostly get
them, for the simple
cases anyway, but there are couple of examples that are leaving me confused.
Copied some of the example code here from

Hi,
Some random questions based on playing around with Rust for a few weeks.
1. Do mutable variant types allocated in stack always occupy a fixed space
(the size of the largest possibly value) ?
I guess it would have to be so, just wondering if there might be some
other magic going on.
