## CastKind

# Enum CastKind

Source

    pub enum CastKind {
        PointerExposeProvenance,
        PointerWithExposedProvenance,
        PointerCoercion(PointerCoercion, CoercionSource),
        IntToInt,
        FloatToInt,
        FloatToFloat,
        IntToFloat,
        PtrToPtr,
        FnPtrToPtr,
        Transmute,
        Subtype,
    }

## Variants§

§

### PointerExposeProvenance

An exposing pointer to address cast. A cast between a pointer and an integer type, or between a function pointer and an integer type. See the docs on `expose_provenance` for more details.

§

### PointerWithExposedProvenance

An address-to-pointer cast that picks up an exposed provenance. See the docs on `with_exposed_provenance` for more details.

§

### PointerCoercion(PointerCoercion, CoercionSource)

Pointer related casts that are done by coercions. Note that reference-to-raw-ptr casts are translated into `&raw mut/const *r`, i.e., they are not actually casts.

The following are allowed in `AnalysisPhase::Initial` as they’re needed for borrowck, but after that are forbidden (including in all phases of runtime MIR):

- `PointerCoercion::ArrayToPointer`
- `PointerCoercion::MutToConstPointer`

Both are runtime nops, so should be `CastKind::PtrToPtr` instead in runtime MIR.

### IntToInt

### FloatToInt

§

### FloatToFloat

§

### IntToFloat

§

### PtrToPtr

§

### FnPtrToPtr

§

### Transmute

Reinterpret the bits of the input as a different type.

MIR is well-formed if the input and output types have different sizes, but running a transmute between differently-sized types is UB.

§

### Subtype

A `Subtype` cast is applied to any `StatementKind::Assign` where type of lvalue doesn’t match the type of rvalue, the primary goal is making subtyping explicit during optimizations and codegen.

This cast doesn’t impact the runtime behavior of the program except for potentially changing some type metadata of the interpreter or codegen backend.

This goal is achieved with mir_transform pass `Subtyper`, which runs right after borrowchecker, as we only care about subtyping that can affect trait selection and `TypeId`.
