Description
instantiate_poly_trait_ref_inner has a speculative parameter:
| speculative: bool, |
This parameter is used to suppress several errors downstream, and has only one usage:
rust/compiler/rustc_hir_analysis/src/lib.rs
Line 285 in f525bb4
| true, |
... which is inside of hir_trait_to_predicates, which itself has only one usage:
rust/compiler/rustc_privacy/src/lib.rs
Lines 1215 to 1222 in f525bb4
| // The traits' privacy in bodies is already checked as a part of trait object types. | |
| let bounds = rustc_hir_analysis::hir_trait_to_predicates( | |
| self.tcx, | |
| trait_ref, | |
| // NOTE: This isn't really right, but the actual type doesn't matter here. It's | |
| // just required by `ty::TraitRef`. | |
| self.tcx.types.never, | |
| ); |
The reason why speculative = true at this call-site is because we're passing the wrong self type when instantiating the trait ref:
rust/compiler/rustc_privacy/src/lib.rs
Lines 1219 to 1221 in f525bb4
| // NOTE: This isn't really right, but the actual type doesn't matter here. It's | |
| // just required by `ty::TraitRef`. | |
| self.tcx.types.never, |
If we were able to pass the correct self type here, then we can totally remove the speculative parameter. I think that would be a nice clean-up if possible.
