Description
Consider a simple struct
which can be created at compile time (used in const
s):
#[derive(Eq, PartialEq)]
struct A { value: u32 }
const fn new(value: u32) -> A {
A { value }
}
I then defined some named constants:
const A_1: A = new(1);
const A_2: A = new(2);
Later on, I tried to use match
to convert a variable of type A
to a string:
let a_str = match a {
A_1 => "A 1",
A_2 => "A 2",
_ => "Unknown A",
};
This leads to the following compiler crash:
error: internal compiler error: /checkout/src/librustc_const_eval/_match.rs:261: bad constructor ConstantValue(Const { ty: A, val: Aggregate(Struct([(value(91), Const { ty: u32, val: Integral(U32(1)) })])) }) for adt A
note: the compiler unexpectedly panicked. this is a bug.
note: we would appreciate a bug report: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md#bug-reports
note: rustc 1.23.0-nightly (5041b3bb3 2017-11-19) running on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

note: Run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` for a backtrace.
Also uploaded the sample code to the Rust Playground.
As a side-note: it does not crash if I manually construct the structs, i.e.
const A_1: A = A { value: 1 };
const A_2: A = A { value: 2 };
Alternatively, it also works if I replace the match
with if / else chains.
