:relfileprefix: ../../
:mrdocs:

An instance of this union is a block of raw memory of specified `SIZE` and `ALIGNMENT`. A `AlignedBuffer` object does not manage the construction or destruction of any other objects. `SIZE` is rounded up to the nearest multiple of `ALIGNMENT`. An instantiation of this union template will not compile unless `ALIGNMENT` is a power of two not larger than `AlignmentUtil::BSLS_MAX_ALIGNMENT`.
