Other Syntax

  • path<…> (e.g. Vec<u8>): specifies parameters to generic type in a type. See Generics.
  • path::<…>, method::<…> (e.g. "42".parse::<i32>()): specifies parameters to generic type, function, or method in an expression.
  • fn ident<…> …: define generic function. See Generics.
  • struct ident<…> …: define generic structure. See Generics.
  • enum ident<…> …: define generic enumeration. See Generics.
  • impl<…> …: define generic implementation.
  • for<…> type: higher-ranked lifetime bounds.
  • type<ident=type> (e.g. Iterator<Item=T>): a generic type where one or more associated types have specific assignments. See Associated Types.
  • T: U: generic parameter T constrained to types that implement U. See Traits.
  • T: 'a: generic type T must outlive lifetime 'a. When we say that a type 'outlives' the lifetime, we mean that it cannot transitively contain any references with lifetimes shorter than 'a.
  • T : 'static: The generic type T contains no borrowed references other than 'static ones.
  • 'b: 'a: generic lifetime 'b must outlive lifetime 'a.
  • T: ?Sized: allow generic type parameter to be a dynamically-sized type. See Unsized Types (?Sized).
  • 'a + trait, trait + trait: compound type constraint. See Traits (Multiple Trait Bounds).
