Description
When creating an empty trait object using the dyn
syntax, the error message is misleading. Example:
fn main() {
let _x: &dyn = &0;
}
This is rejected, with this message:
error[E0224]: at least one non-builtin trait is required for an object type
--> src/main.rs:2:14
|
2 | let _x: &dyn = &0;
| ^^^
The error message here implies that at least one trait that is not an auto trait (Send
/Sync
) has to be specified. However, &dyn Send
is accepted, and &Send
has worked since 1.0.0, so the message is clearly wrong. Should be pretty easy to fix in the code below:
rust/src/librustc_typeck/astconv.rs
Lines 1247 to 1251 in c8865d8
