1458+ A reference has a longer lifetime than the data it references.
1459+
1460+ Erroneous code example:
1461+
1462+ ```compile_fail,E0491
1463+ // struct containing a reference requires a lifetime parameter,
1464+ // because the data the reference points to must outlive the struct (see E0106)
1465+ struct Struct<'a> {
1466+ ref_i32: &'a i32,
1467+ }
1468+
1469+ // However, a nested struct like this, the signature itself does not tell
1470+ // whether 'a outlives 'b or the other way around.
1471+ // So it could be possible that 'b of reference outlives 'a of the data.
1472+ struct Nested<'a, 'b> {
1473+ ref_struct: &'b Struct<'a>, // compile error E0491
1474+ }
1475+ ```
1476+
1477+ To fix this issue, you can specify a bound to the lifetime like below:
1478+
1479+ ```
1480+ struct Struct<'a> {
1481+ ref_i32: &'a i32,
1482+ }
1483+
1484+ // 'a: 'b means 'a outlives 'b
1485+ struct Nested<'a: 'b, 'b> {
1486+ ref_struct: &'b Struct<'a>,
1487+ }
1488+ ```
