Newb Question: the linked post "the-missing-zig-polymorphism-reference" says:
You could also use anyopaque but it introduces alignment problems that only complicates the solution.
The zig language reference is a bit muddled about this, as it does say to use anyopaque for type erased pointers. But it also says anyopaque is for interop with C void pointers. (and it seems c_void was renamed to anyopaque at some time).
I would definitely lean towards simplify just using usize as in the linked post. But I'm probably not understanding the pros/cons?
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
Really nice post, thanks @kilianvounckx !
