//! Operations on unique pointer types
// FIXME: this module should not exist in libcore. It must currently because the
// Box implementation is quite ad-hoc in the compiler. Once there is
// proper support in the compiler this type will be able to be defined in
// its own module.
/// A value that represents the global exchange heap. This is the default

/// let foo = box(HEAP) Bar::new(...);
/// let foo = box Bar::new(...);
