Function stringToBytes

regex.go:63–69

stringToBytes converts string to []byte without allocation. This is the Go equivalent of Rust's str.as_bytes() - a zero-cost reinterpret cast. The returned slice MUST NOT be modified (same as Rust's immutable &[u8]). go:inline

(s string)

//
//go:inline
func stringToBytes(s string) []byte {
	if s == "" {
		return nil
	}
	// G103: Safe - read-only view of immutable string data (like Rust's as_bytes)
	return unsafe.Slice(unsafe.StringData(s), len(s)) //nolint:gosec
}

// Regex represents a compiled regular expression.
