The `#[rustc_on_unimplemented]` attribute allows trait definitions to add specialized
|
||||
notes to error messages when an implementation was expected but not found.
|
||||
You can refer to the trait's generic arguments by name and to the resolved type using `Self`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example:
|
||||
This attribute allows trait definitions to modify error messages when an implementation was
|
||||
expected but not found. The string literals in the attribute are format strings and can be
|
||||
formatted with named parameters. See the Formatting
|
||||
section below for what parameters are permitted.

`rustc_on_unimplemented` also supports advanced filtering for better targeting

of messages, as well as modifying specific parts of the error message. You

target the text of:

||||
|
||||
You can modify the contents of:
|
||||
- the main error message (`message`)
|
||||
- the label (`label`)
|
||||
- an extra note (`note`)
|
||||
- the note(s) (`note`)

To allow more targeted error messages, it is possible to filter the
|
||||
application of these fields based on a variety of attributes when using
|
||||
`on`:
|
||||
The functionality discussed so far is also available with
|
||||
[`#[diagnostic::on_unimplemented]`](https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/reference/attributes/diagnostics.html#the-diagnosticon_unimplemented-attribute).
|
||||
If you can, you should use that instead.
|
||||
|
||||
### Filtering
|
||||
|
||||
To allow more targeted error messages, it is possible to filter the
|
||||
application of these fields with `on`.
|
||||
|
||||
You can filter on the following boolean flags:
|
||||
- `crate_local`: whether the code causing the trait bound to not be
|
||||
fulfilled is part of the user's crate. This is used to avoid suggesting
|
||||
code changes that would require modifying a dependency.
|
||||
- Any of the generic arguments that can be substituted in the text can be
|
||||
referred by name as well for filtering, like `Rhs="i32"`, except for
|
||||
`Self`.
|
||||
- `_Self`: to filter only on a particular calculated trait resolution, like
|
||||
`Self="std::iter::Iterator<char>"`. This is needed because `Self` is a
|
||||
keyword which cannot appear in attributes.
|
||||
- `direct`: user-specified rather than derived obligation.
|
||||
- `from_desugaring`: usable both as boolean (whether the flag is present)
|
||||
or matching against a particular desugaring. The desugaring is identified
|
||||
with its variant name in the `DesugaringKind` enum.
|
||||
- `direct`: whether this is an user-specified rather than derived obligation.
|
||||
- `from_desugaring`: whether we are in some kind of desugaring, like `?`
|
||||
or a `try` block for example. This flag can also be matched on, see below.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the `Iterator` trait can be annotated in the following way:
|
||||
You can match on the following names and values, using `name = "value"`:
|
||||
- `cause`: Match against one variant of the `ObligationCauseCode`
|
||||
enum. Only `"MainFunctionType"` is supported.
|
||||
- `from_desugaring`: Match against a particular variant of the `DesugaringKind`
|
||||
enum. The desugaring is identified by its variant name, for example
|
||||
`"QuestionMark"` for `?` desugaring or `"TryBlock"` for `try` blocks.
|
||||
- `Self` and any generic arguments of the trait, like `Self = "alloc::string::String"`
|
||||
or `Rhs="i32"`.
|
||||
|
||||
The compiler can provide several values to match on, for example:
|
||||
- the self_ty, pretty printed with and without type arguments resolved.
|
||||
- `"{integral}"`, if self_ty is an integral of which the type is known.
|
||||
- `"[]"`, `"[{ty}]"`, `"[{ty}; _]"`, `"[{ty}; $N]"` when applicable.
|
||||
- references to said slices and arrays.
|
||||
- `"fn"`, `"unsafe fn"` or `"#[target_feature] fn"` when self is a function.
|
||||
- `"{integer}"` and `"{float}"` if the type is a number but we haven't inferred it yet.
|
||||
- combinations of the above, like `"[{integral}; _]"`.
|
||||
|
||||
For example, the `Iterator` trait can be filtered in the following way:
|
||||
|
||||
```rust,ignore
|
||||
#[rustc_on_unimplemented(
|
||||
on(
|
||||
_Self="&str",
|
||||
note="call `.chars()` or `.as_bytes()` on `{Self}`"
|
||||
),
|
||||
message="`{Self}` is not an iterator",
|
||||
label="`{Self}` is not an iterator",
|
||||
note="maybe try calling `.iter()` or a similar method"
|
||||
on(Self = "&str", note = "call `.chars()` or `.as_bytes()` on `{Self}`"),
|
||||
message = "`{Self}` is not an iterator",
|
||||
label = "`{Self}` is not an iterator",
|
||||
note = "maybe try calling `.iter()` or a similar method"
|
||||
)]

|||

|

```
|
||||
|
||||
If you need to filter on multiple attributes, you can use `all`, `any` or
|
||||
`not` in the following way:
|
||||
The `on` filter accepts `all`, `any` and `not` predicates similar to the `cfg` attribute:
|
||||
|
||||
```rust,ignore
|
||||
#[rustc_on_unimplemented(
|
||||
on(
|
||||
all(_Self="&str", T="std::string::String"),
|
||||
note="you can coerce a `{T}` into a `{Self}` by writing `&*variable`"
|
||||
)
|
||||
)]
|
||||
pub trait From<T>: Sized { /* ... */ }
|
||||
#[rustc_on_unimplemented(on(
|
||||
all(Self = "&str", T = "alloc::string::String"),
|
||||
note = "you can coerce a `{T}` into a `{Self}` by writing `&*variable`"
|
||||
))]
|
||||
pub trait From<T>: Sized {
|
||||
/* ... */
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Formatting
|
||||
|
||||
The string literals are format strings that accept parameters wrapped in braces
|
||||
but positional and listed parameters and format specifiers are not accepted.
|
||||
The following parameter names are valid:
|
||||
- `Self` and all generic parameters of the trait.
|
||||
- `This`: the name of the trait the attribute is on, without generics.
|
||||
- `Trait`: the name of the "sugared" trait. See `TraitRefPrintSugared`.
|
||||
- `ItemContext`: the kind of `hir::Node` we're in, things like `"an async block"`,
|
||||
`"a function"`, `"an async function"`, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
Something like:
|
||||
|
||||
```rust,ignore
|
||||
#![feature(rustc_attrs)]
|
||||
|
||||
#[rustc_on_unimplemented(message = "Self = `{Self}`, \
|
||||
T = `{T}`, this = `{This}`, trait = `{Trait}`, \
|
||||
context = `{ItemContext}`")]
|
||||
pub trait From<T>: Sized {
|
||||
fn from(x: T) -> Self;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
fn main() {
|
||||
let x: i8 = From::from(42_i32);
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Will format the message into
|
||||
```text
|
||||
"Self = `i8`, T = `i32`, this = `From`, trait = `From<i32>`, context = `a function`"
|
||||
```
