| #### Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler. | |
| Erroneous code examples: | |
| ```compile_fail,E0425 | |
| impl Something {} // error: type name `Something` is not in scope | |
| // or: | |
| trait Foo { | |
| fn bar(N); // error: type name `N` is not in scope | |
| } | |
| // or: | |
| fn foo(x: T) {} // type name `T` is not in scope | |
| ``` | |
| To fix this error, please verify you didn't misspell the type name, you did | |
| declare it or imported it into the scope. Examples: | |
| ``` | |
| struct Something; | |
| impl Something {} // ok! | |
| // or: | |
| trait Foo { | |
| type N; | |
| fn bar(_: Self::N); // ok! | |
| } | |
| // or: | |
| fn foo<T>(x: T) {} // ok! | |
| ``` | |
| Another case that causes this error is when a type is imported into a parent | |
| module. To fix this, you can follow the suggestion and use File directly or | |
| `use super::File;` which will import the types from the parent namespace. An | |
| example that causes this error is below: | |
| ```compile_fail,E0425 | |
| use std::fs::File; | |
| mod foo { | |
| fn some_function(f: File) {} | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| ``` | |
| use std::fs::File; | |
| mod foo { | |
| // either | |
| use super::File; | |
| // or | |
| // use std::fs::File; | |
| fn foo(f: File) {} | |
| } | |
| # fn main() {} // don't insert it for us; that'll break imports | |
| ``` |
