A lifetime parameter of a function definition is called *late-bound* if it both: | ||
|
||
1. appears in an argument type | ||
2. does not appear in a generic type constraint | ||
|
||
You cannot specify lifetime arguments for late-bound lifetime parameters. | ||
|
||
Erroneous code example: | ||
|
||
```compile_fail,E0794 | ||
fn foo<'a>(x: &'a str) -> &'a str { x } | ||
let _ = foo::<'static>; | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The type of a concrete instance of a generic function is universally quantified | ||
over late-bound lifetime parameters. This is because we want the function to | ||
work for any lifetime substituted for the late-bound lifetime parameter, no | ||
matter where the function is called. Consequently, it doesn't make sense to | ||
specify arguments for late-bound lifetime parameters, since they are not | ||
resolved until the function's call site(s). | ||
|
||
To fix the issue, remove the specified lifetime: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
fn foo<'a>(x: &'a str) -> &'a str { x } | ||
let _ = foo; | ||
``` | ||
|
||
### Additional information | ||
|
||
Lifetime parameters that are not late-bound are called *early-bound*. | ||
Confusion may arise from the fact that late-bound and early-bound | ||
lifetime parameters are declared the same way in function definitions. | ||
When referring to a function pointer type, universal quantification over | ||
late-bound lifetime parameters can be made explicit: | ||
|
||
``` | ||
trait BarTrait<'a> {} | ||
struct Bar<'a> { | ||
s: &'a str | ||
} | ||
impl<'a> BarTrait<'a> for Bar<'a> {} | ||
fn bar<'a, 'b, T>(x: &'a str, _t: T) -> &'a str | ||
where T: BarTrait<'b> | ||
{ | ||
x | ||
} | ||
let bar_fn: for<'a> fn(&'a str, Bar<'static>) -> &'a str = bar; // OK | ||
let bar_fn2 = bar::<'static, Bar>; // Not allowed | ||
let bar_fn3 = bar::<Bar>; // OK | ||
``` | ||
|
||
In the definition of `bar`, the lifetime parameter `'a` is late-bound, while | ||
`'b` is early-bound. This is reflected in the type annotation for `bar_fn`, | ||
where `'a` is universally quantified and `'b` is substituted by a specific | ||
lifetime. It is not allowed to explicitly specify early-bound lifetime | ||
arguments when late-bound lifetime parameters are present (as for `bar_fn2`, | ||
see issue #42868: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/42868), although the | ||
types that are constrained by early-bound parameters can be specified (as for | ||
`bar_fn3`). |
