pub trait NoTypeInference {
type This;
}Expand description
A trait to prevent type inference during function calls.
Useful when you have a type that wraps a pointer (like ForeignArrayPtr) and you don’t want
Rust to infer the type of pointer during creation. Instead, the caller must specify the generic
type.
Example:
ⓘ
let x: ForeignArrayPtr<u8>;
// normally the `<u8>` wouldn't be required since Rust would infer it from the type of `x`, but
// for this function using [`NoTypeInference`], the `<u8>` is required and must match
x = ForeignArrayPtr::new::<u8>(...);
