New upstream version 1.41.1+dfsg1

[rustc.git] / src / librustc / infer / nll_relate / mod.rs

//! This code is kind of an alternate way of doing subtyping,
//! supertyping, and type equating, distinct from the `combine.rs`
//! code but very similar in its effect and design. Eventually the two
//! ought to be merged. This code is intended for use in NLL and chalk.
//!
//! Here are the key differences:
//!
//! - This code may choose to bypass some checks (e.g., the occurs check)
//!   in the case where we know that there are no unbound type inference
//!   variables. This is the case for NLL, because at NLL time types are fully
//!   inferred up-to regions.
//! - This code uses "universes" to handle higher-ranked regions and
//!   not the leak-check. This is "more correct" than what rustc does
//!   and we are generally migrating in this direction, but NLL had to
//!   get there first.
//!
//! Also, this code assumes that there are no bound types at all, not even
//! free ones. This is ok because:
//! - we are not relating anything quantified over some type variable
//! - we will have instantiated all the bound type vars already (the one
//!   thing we relate in chalk are basically domain goals and their
//!   constituents)
