The initial bitflags support in #528 had a restriction where referring to the
Self
type in abitflags
constant would result in a compile error.Turns out that's entirely unnecessary and I wasn't quite awake when I wrote that code. A minor modification of the generated code avoids this somewhat annoying restriction. Instead of copying the expression verbatim, we can just refer to the associated constant created by the
bitflags
crate, and extract the raw bits.
