Can you also add a test for this? That will need the const generics feature gate so you can have non-usize constants, but that's fine.

we already check this,
[u8; bar::<Self>]
only fails because ofvisit_ty
as bar isConst { ty: fn bar with substs [Self], ct: ZST }
.If we did not add this
visit_ty
here we would never fail for constants, which took me a while to find outThere was a problem hiding this comment.

wait... what? as far as I can tell you only have
bar::<Self>()
, which is a constant ofusize
type. Even if its body contains other stuff.There was a problem hiding this comment.

yeah, meant
bar::<Self>()
. The issue here is thatbar::<Self>
is a ZST of typefn() -> usize { bar<Self> }
, so we have to look at the type of constants to see if they referenceSelf
. The value of a const cannot referenceSelf

I get that, but I don't understand how the constant we are visiting is ever anything but a constant with
ty: usize
, where the constant's value may beUnevaluated(DefIdOfbar, [Self])
, but that value is essentially irrelevant for thevisit_ty
here. Or is this during the visiting of the MIR of theusize
typed constant? I don't think it ever is that, as the visitor we are currently talking about is visiting the signature of the functionThere was a problem hiding this comment.

So we are visiting
[u8; bar::<Self>()]
and then the abstract const for the array length which isSo
Self
is only mentioned in the type of the function object.During the visiting of the
AbstractConst
of the usize typed constantThere was a problem hiding this comment.

Oh, now I realize where my confusion is coming from. It's actually both!
So...
isn't possible, thus no
is possible either.
