| # Heap-Allocated, Fixed-Size, Bit Buffer |
| |
| This module defines an analogue to `Box<[bool]>`, as `Box<BitSlice>` cannot be |
| constructed or used in any way. Like `Box<[T]>`, this is a heap allocation that |
| can modify its contents, but cannot resize the collection. The `BitBox` value is |
| an owning [`*BitSlice`] pointer, and can be used to access its contents without |
| any decoding. |
| |
| You should generally prefer [`BitVec`] or [`BitArray`]; however, very large |
| `BitArrays` are likely better served being copied into a `BitBox` rather than |
| being boxed themselves when moved into the heap. |
