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
s that are used by other parts of the compiler.
Statics
- The
absolute_paths_not_starting_with_crate
lint detects fully qualified paths that start with a module name instead ofcrate
,self
