unaligned_type

Header: unaligned_type.h
From: 20.23.0

A wrapper for fundamental types around unaligned internal storage.
Allows big and little endian storage.

Marked as packed for MSVC, GCC amd Clang.

template <typename T, int Endian>
class unaligned_type

Where Endian is etl::endian::big or etl::endian::little.


For C++11 or above

template <typename T, int Endian>
using unaligned_type_t = typename etl::unaligned_type<T, Endian>::type;

For C++17 or above

template <typename T, int Endian>
constexpr size_t unaligned_type_v = etl::unaligned_type<T, Endian>::Size;

The following types are predefined.
