Rust error E0088: #### Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler
What it means#### Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler.
Retired: rustc no longer emits this error code. You may still see it in old answers, books and CI logs from older toolchains; the explanation below is kept for reference.
The compiler team's explanation
Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler.
You gave too many lifetime arguments. Erroneous code example:
fn f() {}
fn main() {
f::<'static>() // error: wrong number of lifetime arguments:
// expected 0, found 1
}
Please check you give the right number of lifetime arguments. Example:
fn f() {}
fn main() {
f() // ok!
}
It's also important to note that the Rust compiler can generally determine the lifetime by itself. Example:
struct Foo {
value: String
}
impl Foo {
// it can be written like this
fn get_value<'a>(&'a self) -> &'a str { &self.value }
// but the compiler works fine with this too:
fn without_lifetime(&self) -> &str { &self.value }
}
fn main() {
let f = Foo { value: "hello".to_owned() };
println!("{}", f.get_value());
println!("{}", f.without_lifetime());
