A value was moved out of a non-copy fixed-size array.
Erroneous code example:
struct NonCopy; fn main() { let array = [NonCopy; 1]; let _value = array[0]; // error: cannot move out of type `[NonCopy; 1]`, // a non-copy fixed-size array }
The first element was moved out of the array, but this is not possible because NonCopy does not implement the Copy trait.
Consider borrowing the element instead of moving it:
struct NonCopy;
fn main() {
let array = [NonCopy; 1];
let _value = &array[0]; // Borrowing is allowed, unlike moving.
}
Alternatively, if your type implements Clone and you need to own the value, consider borrowing and then cloning:
#[derive(Clone)]
struct NonCopy;
fn main() {
let array = [NonCopy; 1];
// Now you can clone the array element.
let _value = array[0].clone();
}
If you really want to move the value out, you can use a destructuring array pattern to move it:
struct NonCopy;
fn main() {
let array = [NonCopy; 1];
// Destructuring the array
let [_value] = array;
}
