The rules were baffling when I ran in to them trying to add some impls (to
std
, not my own code, as it happens), so I made the compiler explain them to me.The logic of the successful cases is unchanged, but I did rearrange it to reverse the order of the primitive and
Adt
cases; this makes producing the errors easier. I'm still not very familiar withrustc
internals, so let me know if there's a better way to do any of this.This also adds test coverage for which impls are accepted or rejected, which I didn't see any of already.
The PR template tells me I should consider mentioning a tracking issue, but there isn't one for
pointer_like_trait
, so I'll mentiondyn_star
