Rust utilities to inspect the data layout of objects.

This library is for debugging only because data layout of Rust is not be stabilized.

Please read [Data Layout - The Rustonomicon](https://doc.rust-lang.org/stable/nomicon/data.html) in detail.

## Usage

```rust

use binspect::binspect;

let s = "ABC";

binspect!(s);

binspect!(*s);

```

An example of output (depends on compilation and runtime environments):

```text

-----+ 0x7ffce3c8f7a0: &str = s

0000 | 49 03 b4 2f 2c 56 00 00 : 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

-----+ 0x562c2fb40349: str = *s

0000 | 41 42 43

```
