rustc: Improve long diagnostics for E0282
The new example uses a `char` iterator instead of `i32`, to avoid interplay between type inference and the default type for integer literals.

@ -375,39 +375,40 @@ by adding a type annotation. Sometimes you need to specify a generic type
|

parameter manually.
|

|
||||
A common example is the `collect` method on `Iterator`. It has a generic type
|
||||
parameter with a `FromIterator` bound, which is implemented by `Vec` and
|
||||
`VecDeque` among others. Consider the following snippet:
|
||||
parameter with a `FromIterator` bound, which for a `char` iterator is
|
||||
implemented by `Vec` and `String` among others. Consider the following snippet
|
||||
that reverses the characters of a string:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
let x = (1_i32 .. 10).collect();
|
||||
let x = "hello".chars().rev().collect();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
In this case, the compiler cannot infer what the type of `x` should be:
|
||||
`Vec<i32>` and `VecDeque<i32>` are both suitable candidates. To specify which
|
||||
type to use, you can use a type annotation on `x`:
|
||||
`Vec<char>` and `String` are both suitable candidates. To specify which type to
|
||||
use, you can use a type annotation on `x`:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
let x: Vec<i32> = (1_i32 .. 10).collect();
|
||||
let x: Vec<char> = "hello".chars().rev().collect();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
It is not necessary to annotate the full type, once the ambiguity is resolved,
|
||||
It is not necessary to annotate the full type. Once the ambiguity is resolved,
|
||||
the compiler can infer the rest:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
let x: Vec<_> = (1_i32 .. 10).collect();
|
||||
let x: Vec<_> = "hello".chars().rev().collect();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Another way to provide the compiler with enough information, is to specify the
|
||||
generic type parameter:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
let x = (1_i32 .. 10).collect::<Vec<i32>>();
|
||||
let x = "hello".chars().rev().collect::<Vec<char>>();
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Again, you need not specify the full type if the compiler can infer it:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
let x = (1_i32 .. 10).collect::<Vec<_>>();
|
||||
let x = "hello".chars().rev().collect::<Vec<_>>();
|
||||
```

Apart from a method or function with a generic type parameter, this error can
