clippy::derived_hash_with_manual_eq: Lints against manual PartialEq implementations for types with a derived Hash implementation

What it meansLints against manual PartialEq implementations for types with a derived Hash implementation. It is in the correctness group and denied by default (the build fails).

Does it matter?

The implementation of these traits must agree (for example for use with HashMap) so it’s probably a bad idea to use a default-generated Hash implementation with an explicitly defined PartialEq. In particular, the following must hold for any type: k1 == k2 ⇒ hash(k1) == hash(k2)

Code that is almost certainly wrong. Denied by default: the build fails until you fix it or allow it.

How to fix it

Clippy does not fix this one automatically. Change the code by hand:

Flagged

#[derive(Hash)]
struct Foo;

impl PartialEq for Foo {
    ...
}

Turn it off, or on

Allow it where it does not fit your code, as narrowly as you can:

On one item

#[allow(clippy::derived_hash_with_manual_eq)]
fn my_function() { /* ... */ }

Whole crate (Cargo.toml)

[lints.clippy]
derived_hash_with_manual_eq = "allow"

One run

cargo clippy -- -A clippy::derived-hash-with-manual-eq

The [lints] table needs Rust 1.74 or newer. In a workspace, put it under [workspace.lints.clippy] and add [lints] workspace = true to each member.
