Description
Summary
When a struct literal is initialized with a field name that does not belong to the struct, the result is a compiler error. This error does not have a code which can be looked up with --explain
.
Repro
To reproduce, attempt to compile the following:
struct S {}
fn f() {
let s = S { x: 0 };
}
I would expect an error like:
src/main.rs:12:17: 12:18 error: structure `S` has no field named `x` [EXXXX]
src/main.rs:12 let s = S { x: 0 };
src/main.rs:12:20: 12:24 help: run `rustc --explain EXXXX` to see a detailed explanation
...where XXXX
is an appropriate error code. Then, when I invoke rustc --explain EXXXX
, I expect to see a verbose explanation of the error, which should also appear in the Rust Compiler Error Index.
Instead, the error has only a brief description with no code, and looks like:
src/main.rs:12:17: 12:18 error: structure `S` has no field named `x`
src/main.rs:12 let s = S { x: 0 };
Meta
The existing compiler error is located in the Rust source in librustc_typeck/check/mod.rs
.
