The reverse conversion unfortunately causes unexpected errors like:
```
error[E0277]: the trait bound `!: std::convert::From<()>` is not satisfied
--> src/librustc_metadata/encoder.rs:105:9
|
105 | self.emit_usize(seq.len)?;
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ the trait `std::convert::From<()>` is not implemented for `!`
|
= help: the following implementations were found:
<! as std::convert::From<std::convert::Infallible>>
= note: the trait is implemented for `()`. Possibly this error has been caused by changes to Rust's type-inference algorithm (see: #48950 for more info). Consider whether you meant to use the type `()` here instead.
= note: required by `std::convert::From::from`
```
I don’t understand why this error happens.
If I’m reading the code correctly the return types of `emit_usize`
and of the method that contains line 105 are both `Result<(), !>`,
so the expansion of the `?` operator should involve `!: From<!>`,
not `From<()>`.
Is this a type inference bug?impl From<!> for Infallible
