Module rustc_infer::traits::util

“Elaboration” is the process of identifying all the predicates that
are implied by a source predicate. Currently, this basically means
walking the “supertraits” and other similar assumptions. For example,
if we know that
T: Ord
, the elaborator would deduce that T: PartialOrd
holds as well. Similarly, if we have trait Foo: 'static
, and we know that
T: Foo
, then we know that T: 'static
.A filter around an iterator of predicates that makes it yield up
just trait references.
Functions
A specialized variant of
elaborate_trait_refs
that only elaborates trait references that may
define the given associated type assoc_name
. It uses the
super_predicates_that_define_assoc_type
query to avoid enumerating super-predicates that
aren’t related to assoc_item
. This is used when resolving types like Self::Item
or
T::Item
and helps to avoid cycle errors (see e.g. #35237).
