Part of #163
Synopsis
As our
PartialEq
derive infers trait bounds correctly for generic cases, we need also anEq
derive for doing the same.Solution
derive(Eq)
instd
usescore::cmp::AssertParamIsEq
to assert that fields' types are indeedEq
in itsEq::assert_receiver_is_total_eq()
method. However, they both are#[doc(hidden)]
and not a stable part ofstd
, so we cannot reuse them blindly.However, instead, we could just put the appropriate trait bounds in the
where
clause of the generatedEq
impl
:The only situation where this fails is when the field type uses the self-type recursively:
In this case, we cannot generate
Option<Box<Foo>>: Eq
trait bound, because will hit the compilation error:For such fields, we need to do the similar static assertion as
std
does, that's why introduce our ownderive_more::__private::AssertParamIsEq
helper type. In contrast withstd
, we do generate these assertions (if needed) in an inherent method, rather than introducing a trait for it.Checklist
