17    /// ### Example
18    ///
19    /// ```rust,compile_fail
20    /// #![feature(default_field_values)]
21    /// struct Foo {
22    ///     x: i32 = 101,
23    ///     y: NonDefault,
24    /// }
25    ///
26    /// struct NonDefault;
27    ///
28    /// #[deny(default_overrides_default_fields)]
29    /// impl Default for Foo {
30    ///     fn default() -> Foo {
31    ///         Foo { x: 100, y: NonDefault }
32    ///     }
33    /// }
34    /// ```

36    /// {{produces}}
37    ///
38    /// ### Explanation
39    ///
40    /// Manually writing a `Default` implementation for a type that has
41    /// default field values runs the risk of diverging behavior between
42    /// `Type { .. }` and `<Type as Default>::default()`, which would be a
43    /// foot-gun for users of that type that would expect these to be
44    /// equivalent. If `Default` can't be derived due to some fields not
45    /// having a `Default` implementation, we encourage the use of `..` for
46    /// the fields that do have a default field value.
