Enum rustc_middle::ty::InferTy

pub enum InferTy {
    TyVar(TyVid),
    IntVar(IntVid),
    FloatVar(FloatVid),
    FreshTy(u32),
    FreshIntTy(u32),
    FreshFloatTy(u32),
}

A placeholder for a type that hasn’t been inferred yet.

E.g., if we have an empty array ([]), then we create a fresh type variable for the element type since we won’t know until it’s used what the element type is supposed to be.

Variants

TyVar(TyVid)

A type variable.

Tuple Fields of TyVar

0: TyVid

IntVar(IntVid)

An integral type variable ({integer}).

These are created when the compiler sees an integer literal like 1 that could be several different types (u8, i32, u32, etc.). We don’t know until it’s used what type it’s supposed to be, so we create a fresh type variable.

Tuple Fields of IntVar

0: IntVid

FloatVar(FloatVid)

A floating-point type variable ({float}).

These are created when the compiler sees an float literal like 1.0 that could be either an f32 or an f64. We don’t know until it’s used what type it’s supposed to be, so we create a fresh type variable.

Tuple Fields of FloatVar

0: FloatVid

FreshTy(u32)

A FreshTy is one that is generated as a replacement for an unbound type variable. This is convenient for caching etc. See rustc_infer::infer::freshen for more details.

Compare with TyVar.

Tuple Fields of FreshTy

0: u32

FreshIntTy(u32)

Like FreshTy, but as a replacement for IntVar.

Tuple Fields of FreshIntTy

0: u32

FreshFloatTy(u32)

Like FreshTy, but as a replacement for FloatVar.

Tuple Fields of FreshFloatTy

0: u32

fn has_vars_bound_at_or_above(&self, binder: DebruijnIndex) -> bool

Returns true if self has any late-bound regions that are either bound by binder or bound by some binder outside of binder. If binder is ty::INNERMOST, this indicates whether there are any late-bound regions that appear free.

fn has_vars_bound_above(&self, binder: DebruijnIndex) -> bool

Returns true if this self has any regions that escape binder (and hence are not bound by it).

fn has_escaping_bound_vars(&self) -> bool

fn definitely_has_type_flags(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>, flags: TypeFlags) -> bool

fn has_type_flags(&self, flags: TypeFlags) -> bool

fn has_infer_types_or_consts(&self) -> bool

fn needs_infer(&self) -> bool

fn has_placeholders(&self) -> bool

fn potentially_needs_subst(&self) -> bool

fn definitely_needs_subst(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

fn has_free_regions(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

“Free” regions in this context means that it has any region that is not (a) erased or (b) late-bound.

fn has_erased_regions(&self) -> bool

fn has_erasable_regions(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

True if there are any un-erased free regions.

fn is_known_global(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether this value definitely references only ‘global’ generic parameters that are the same regardless of what fn we are in. This is used for caching.

fn is_global(&self, tcx: TyCtxt<'tcx>) -> bool

Indicates whether this value references only ‘global’ generic parameters that are the same regardless of what fn we are in. This is used for caching.

fn has_late_bound_regions(&self) -> bool

True if there are any late-bound regions

fn still_further_specializable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether this value still has parameters/placeholders/inference variables which could be replaced later, in a way that would change the results of impl specialization.

Layout

Note: Most layout information is completely unstable and may even differ between compilations. The only exception is types with certain repr(...) attributes. Please see the Rust Reference’s “Type Layout” chapter for details on type layout guarantees.
