suggestion to use generic parameter in case of "error[E0782]: trait objects must include the `dyn` keyword"

[p-alik]

Code

trait StateTrait {
  fn handle_state(&self);
}

trait StateView: Sized {
  fn view(_: &StateTrait) -> Vec<Self>;
}

fn main() {}

Current output

error[E0782]: trait objects must include the `dyn` keyword
 --> src/lib.rs:7:15
  |
7 |   fn view(_: &StateTrait) -> Vec<Self>;
  |               ^^^^^^^^^^
  |
help: add `dyn` keyword before this trait
  |
7 |   fn view(_: &dyn StateTrait) -> Vec<Self>;
  |               +++

error: aborting due to previous error
