Static rustc_lint::builtin::LATE_BOUND_LIFETIME_ARGUMENTS

pub static LATE_BOUND_LIFETIME_ARGUMENTS: &'static Lint

The late_bound_lifetime_arguments lint detects generic lifetime arguments in path segments with late bound lifetime parameters.

Example

struct S;

impl S {
    fn late(self, _: &u8, _: &u8) {}
}

fn main() {
    S.late::<'static>(&0, &0);
}

{{produces}}

Explanation

It is not clear how to provide arguments for early-bound lifetime parameters if they are intermixed with late-bound parameters in the same list. For now, providing any explicit arguments will trigger this lint if late-bound parameters are present, so in the future a solution can be adopted without hitting backward compatibility issues. This is a future-incompatible lint to transition this to a hard error in the future. See issue #42868 for more details, along with a description of the difference between early and late-bound parameters.
