rustc_middle/ty/inhabitedness/
mod.rs

1//! This module contains logic for determining whether a type is inhabited or
2//! uninhabited. The [`InhabitedPredicate`] type captures the minimum
3//! information needed to determine whether a type is inhabited given a
4//! `ParamEnv` and module ID.
5//!
6//! # Example
7//! ```rust
8//! #![feature(never_type)]
9//! mod a {
10//!     pub mod b {
11//!         pub struct SecretlyUninhabited {
12//!             _priv: !,
13//!         }
14//!     }
15//! }
16//!
17//! mod c {
18//!     enum Void {}
19//!     pub struct AlsoSecretlyUninhabited {
20//!         _priv: Void,
21//!     }
22//!     mod d {
23//!     }
24//! }
25//!
26//! struct Foo {
27//!     x: a::b::SecretlyUninhabited,
28//!     y: c::AlsoSecretlyUninhabited,
29//! }
30//! ```
31//! In this code, the type `Foo` will only be visibly uninhabited inside the
32//! modules `b`, `c` and `d`. Calling `inhabited_predicate` on `Foo` will
33//! return `NotInModule(b) AND NotInModule(c)`.
34//!
35//! We need this information for pattern-matching on `Foo` or types that contain
36//! `Foo`.
37//!
38//! # Example
39//! ```ignore(illustrative)
40//! let foo_result: Result<T, Foo> = ... ;
41//! let Ok(t) = foo_result;
42//! ```
43//! This code should only compile in modules where the uninhabitedness of `Foo`
44//! is visible.
