// Check that a reservation impl does not force other impls to follow
|
|
// a lattice discipline.
|
|
|
|
// Why did we ever want to do this?
|
|
//
|
|
// We want to eventually add an `impl<T> From<!> for T` impl. That impl conflicts
|
|
// with existing impls - at least the `impl<T> From<T> for T` impl. There are
|
|
// 2 ways we thought of for dealing with that conflict:
|
|
//
|
|
// 1. Using specialization and doing some handling for the
|
|
// overlap. The current thought is to require ["intersection
|
|
// impls"][ii], specialization", which means providing an
|
|
// (higher-priority) impl for the intersection of every 2 conflicting
|
|
// impls that determines what happens in the intersection case. That's
|
|
// the first thing we thought about - see e.g.
|
|
// https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/57012#issuecomment-452150775
|
|
//
|
|
// 2. The other way is to notice that `impl From<!> for T` is basically a
|
|
// marker trait since its only method is uninhabited, and allow for "marker
|
|
// trait overlap", where the conflict "doesn't matter" because it can't
|
|
// actually cause any ambiguity.
|
|
//
|
|
// Now it turned out lattice specialization doesn't work it, because an
|
|
// `impl<T> From<T> for Smaht<T>` would require an `impl From<!> for Smaht<!>`,
|
|
// breaking backwards-compatibility in a fairly painful way. So if we want to
|
|
// go with a known approach, we should go with a "marker trait overlap"-style
|
|
// approach.
