- staticassertion 9y agoAll of the languages I can think of rely on the compiler backend for loop unrolling, which means it isn't a guarantee. You might want this if you need to guarantee the unroll. But I wasn't doing this for a loop unroll. I had a fixed size array that I wanted to serialize/ deserialize to/ from capnproto - there are no fixed size arrays in capnproto, so I wrote a message that just had b1, b2, b3... b16, and then some code to pull it out into a statically sized array. It allowed me to pull a bunch of bytes into a much larger statically allocated array without any allocation or bounds checking.
