UnionPointers Union Reference

Class Description

Inner union with various constexpr constructors (not shown in documentation) to support the initialization of the outer union as constexpr.

Collects a void and a char pointer and arrays of those.
In addition, non-pointer field Memory (type char) is given, which can be be used to receive a pointer to the start of the placeholder by applying operator&. This char* then can be reinterpreted without braking the strict-aliasing rule when compiling the code with higher optimization levels.
