The Default trait was derived on an enum without specifying the default variant.
Erroneous code example:
#[derive(Default)] enum Food { Sweet, Salty, }
The Default cannot be derived on an enum for the simple reason that the compiler doesn't know which value to pick by default whereas it can for a struct as long as all its fields implement the Default trait as well.
For the case where the desired default variant has no payload, you can annotate it with #[default] to derive it:
#[derive(Default)]
enum Food {
#[default]
Sweet,
Salty,
}
In the case where the default variant does have a payload, you will have to implement Default on your enum manually:
enum Food {
Sweet(i32),
Salty,
}
impl Default for Food {
fn default() -> Food {
Food::Sweet(1)
}
}
