There is: .withMemoryRebound()
var opt = PQPrintOpt()
let sep2: StaticString = "|"
opt.fieldSep = sep2.utf8Start.withMemoryRebound(to: Int8.self, capacity:
sep2.utf8CodeUnitCount) {
buffer in
let p = UnsafeMutablePointer<Int8>.allocate(capacity: sep2.utf8CodeUnitCount)
p.assign(from: buffer, count: sep2.utf8CodeUnitCount)
return p
}
// use opt
opt.fieldSep.deinitialize(count: sep2.utf8CodeUnitCount)
opt.fieldSep.deallocate(capacity: sep2.utf8CodeUnitCount)
