| #### Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler. | |
| This error suggests that the expression arm corresponding to the noted pattern | |
| will never be reached as for all possible values of the expression being | |
| matched, one of the preceding patterns will match. | |
| This means that perhaps some of the preceding patterns are too general, this | |
| one is too specific or the ordering is incorrect. | |
| For example, the following `match` block has too many arms: | |
| ``` | |
| match Some(0) { | |
| Some(bar) => {/* ... */} | |
| x => {/* ... */} // This handles the `None` case | |
| _ => {/* ... */} // All possible cases have already been handled | |
| } | |
| ``` | |
| `match` blocks have their patterns matched in order, so, for example, putting | |
| a wildcard arm above a more specific arm will make the latter arm irrelevant. | |
| Ensure the ordering of the match arm is correct and remove any superfluous | |
| arms. |
