Module rustc_lint_defs::builtin
source · Expand description
Some lints that are built in to the compiler.
These are the built-in lints that are emitted direct in the main
compiler code, rather than using their own custom pass. Those
lints are all available in rustc_lint::builtin
.
Structs
Does nothing as a lint pass, but registers some
Lint

or ..
) in a
pattern for a #[non_exhaustive]

order of their fields may differ between
Rust 2018 and 2021.The
rust_2021_incompatible_or_patterns
lint detects usage of old versions of or-patterns.The
