Tracking issue for Box::{into_raw, from_raw}

[alexcrichton]

This is a tracking issue for the box_raw unstable feature in the standard library. These methods are functionally ready to go but may need to settle on some names. Other candidates (like those that CString chose) are into_ptr and from_ptr. These shouldn't be stabilized until they're consistent across the board.

My vote is for into_raw, solely for the purpose of indicating that it's safely round-trippable.

It wouldn't be a tragedy to settle on into_ptr.

This feature is now entering its final comment period for stabilization.
