    moveInitializeMemory(as:fromContentsOf:)

    Moves every element of an initialized source buffer into the uninitialized memory referenced by this buffer, leaving the source memory uninitialized and this buffer’s memory initialized.

    @discardableResult func moveInitializeMemory<T>(as type: T.Type, fromContentsOf source: UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<T>) -> UnsafeMutableBufferPointer<T> where T : ~Copyable

    Parameters

    type

    The type of element to which this buffer’s memory will be bound.

    source

    A buffer referencing the values to copy. The memory region underlying source must be initialized.

    Returns

    A typed buffer referencing the initialized elements. The returned buffer references memory starting at the same base address as this buffer, and its count is equal to source.count.

    When calling the moveInitializeMemory(as:fromContentsOf:) method, the memory referenced by the buffer must be uninitialized, or initialized to a trivial type. The buffer must reference enough memory to store source.count elements, and its baseAddress must be properly aligned for accessing C.Element. After the method returns, the memory referenced by the returned buffer is initialized and the memory region underlying source is uninitialized.

    This method initializes the buffer with the contents of source until source is exhausted. After calling initializeMemory(as:fromContentsOf:), the memory referenced by the returned UnsafeMutableBufferPointer instance is bound to the type T and is initialized. This method does not change the binding state of the unused portion of the buffer, if any.
