Tracking Issue for const_array_as_mut_slice

[bjoernager]

Add the const specifier to <[T; N]>::as_mut_slice.

Public API

impl<T, const N: usize> {
    pub const fn as_mut_slice(&mut self) -> &mut [T];
}

Steps / History

• Implementation: Mark <[T; N]>::as_mut_slice with the const specifier. #133332
• Final comment period (FCP)
• Stabilization PR: Stabilize <[T; N]>::as_mut_slice as const #140066

Unresolved Questions

• None yet.

I've r+'ed the unstable implementation. Given that this is as trivial as it gets, I think it makes sense for this to be stabilized without any further consideration. cc @rust-lang/libs-api for possible FCP

[bjoernager]

I'll get around to the stabilisation PR, then. :)

[jhpratt]

Up to you, as a stabilization PR is of course simple. I would be surprised if the team didn't want to stabilize it, but it's also not up to me.

[bjoernager]

Sure. If anything, it can just sit idle until the (I'm assuming inevitable) FCP has passed – or whatever else happens.

I've opened a PR to stabilize this: #140066.

We'll need to start an FCP.
