3.9 C Union Types
procedure
(make-union-type type ...+) → ctype?
type : ctype?
The primitive type constructor for creating new C union types. Like C
struct types, union types are new primitive types with no conversion
functions associated. Unions are always treated like structs.
Creates a union type whose Racket representation is a union that
works with union-ref and union-set!. The union is
not copied; the Racket representation is backed by the underlying C
representation.
procedure
u : union? i : exact-nonnegative-integer?
Extracts a variant from a union.
procedure
(union-set! u i v) → void?
u : union? i : exact-nonnegative-integer? v : any/c
Sets a variant in a union..
Extracts the pointer for a union’s storage.
