currently there is no restriction on const parameter types having to be sized, although it is impossible to provide any arguments to a parameter such as
const N: [u8]
because type checking{ [1; 2] as [u8] }
will fail as[u8]
is notSized
. We should figure out if we want to find some way to allow !Sized const generics to work or if we want to explicitly forbid them (although if we do we should not addSized
as a supertrait ofConstParamTy
as that would make it impossible to ever allow!Sized
const parameter types)The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
