Sometimes /// we'll be able to say definitively that (e.g.) an impl does not /// apply to the obligation: perhaps it is defined for `usize` but the /// obligation is for `i32`. In that case, we drop the impl out of the /// list. But the other cases are considered *candidates*. /// /// For selection to succeed, there must be exactly one matching /// candidate. If the obligation is fully known, this is guaranteed /// by coherence. However, if the obligation contains type parameters /// or variables, there may be multiple such impls. /// /// It is not a real problem if multiple matching impls exist because /// of type variables - it just means the obligation isn't sufficiently /// elaborated. In that case we report an ambiguity, and the caller can /// try again after more type information has been gathered or report a /// "type annotations needed" error. /// /// However, with type parameters, this can be a real problem - type /// parameters don't unify with regular types, but they *can* unify /// with variables from blanket impls, and (unless we know its bounds /// will always be satisfied) picking the blanket impl will be wrong /// for at least *some* substitutions. To make this concrete, if we have /// /// ```rust, ignore /// trait AsDebug { type Out: fmt::Debug; fn debug(self) -> Self::Out; } /// impl AsDebug for T { /// type Out = T; /// fn debug(self) -> fmt::Debug { self } /// } /// fn foo(t: T) { println!("{:?}", ::debug(t)); } /// ``` /// /// we can't just use the impl to resolve the `` obligation /// -- a type from another crate (that doesn't implement `fmt::Debug`) could /// implement `AsDebug`. /// /// Because where-clauses match the type exactly, multiple clauses can /// only match if there are unresolved variables, and we can mostly just /// report this ambiguity in that case. This is still a problem - we can't /// *do anything* with ambiguities that involve only regions. This is issue /// #21974. /// /// If a single where-clause matches and there are no inference /// variables left, then it definitely matches and we can just select /// it. /// /// In fact, we even select the where-clause when the obligation contains /// inference variables. The can lead to inference making "leaps of logic", /// for example in this situation: /// /// ```rust, ignore /// pub trait Foo { fn foo(&self) -> T; } /// impl Foo<()> for T { fn foo(&self) { } } /// impl Foo for bool { fn foo(&self) -> bool { *self } } /// /// pub fn foo(t: T) where T: Foo { /// println!("{:?}", >::foo(&t)); /// } /// fn main() { foo(false); } /// ``` /// /// Here the obligation `>` can be matched by both the blanket /// impl and the where-clause. We select the where-clause and unify `$0=bool`, /// so the program prints "false". However, if the where-clause is omitted, /// the blanket impl is selected, we unify `$0=()`, and the program prints /// "()". /// /// Exactly the same issues apply to projection and object candidates, except /// that we can have both a projection candidate and a where-clause candidate /// for the same obligation. In that case either would do (except that /// different "leaps of logic" would occur if inference variables are /// present), and we just pick the where-clause.
