Error code E0010

Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler.

The value of statics and constants must be known at compile time, and they live for the entire lifetime of a program. Creating a boxed value allocates memory on the heap at runtime, and therefore cannot be done at compile time.

Erroneous code example:

const CON : Vec<i32> = vec![1, 2, 3];
