(<a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch17-02-trait-objects.html#object-safety-is-required-for-trait-objects">object-safety</a>).</p>
<p>This is useful for when changes are made to a trait that accidentally
prevent it from being used as an <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch17-02-trait-objects.html#object-safety-is-required-for-trait-objects">object</a>. Such a case would be adding a
generic method and forgetting to add <code>where Self: Sized</code> after it. If left
unnoticed, that mistake will affect crate users and break both forward and
backward compatibility.</p>
<h2 id="examples"><a class="doc-anchor" href="#examples">§</a>Examples</h2>
<p>When exposing a public API, its important that traits that could previously
use dynamic dispatch can still do so in future compatible crate versions.</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">trait </span>MySafeTrait {
<span class="kw">fn </span>foo(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="self">self</span>) -&gt; u32;
}
<span class="macro">assert_obj_safe!</span>(std::fmt::Write, MySafeTrait);</code></pre></div>
<p>Works with traits that are not in the calling module:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">mod </span>inner {
<span class="kw">pub trait </span>BasicTrait {
<span class="kw">fn </span>bar(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="self">self</span>);
}
<span class="macro">assert_obj_safe!</span>(BasicTrait);
}
<span class="macro">assert_obj_safe!</span>(inner::BasicTrait);</code></pre></div>
<p>The following example fails to compile because raw pointers cannot be sent
between threads safely:</p>
<div class="example-wrap compile_fail"><a href="#" class="tooltip" title="This example deliberately fails to compile"></a><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="macro">assert_impl!</span>(<span class="kw-2">*const </span>u8, Send);</code></pre></div>
<p>The following example fails to compile because generics without
<code>where Self: Sized</code> are not allowed in <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/book/ch17-02-trait-objects.html#object-safety-is-required-for-trait-objects">object-safe</a> trait methods:</p>
<div class="example-wrap compile_fail"><a href="#" class="tooltip" title="This example deliberately fails to compile"></a><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">trait </span>MyUnsafeTrait {
<span class="kw">fn </span>baz&lt;T&gt;(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="self">self</span>) -&gt; T;
}
<span class="macro">assert_obj_safe!</span>(MyUnsafeTrait);</code></pre></div>
<p>When we fix that, the previous code will compile:</p>
<div class="example-wrap"><pre class="rust rust-example-rendered"><code><span class="kw">trait </span>MyUnsafeTrait {
<span class="kw">fn </span>baz&lt;T&gt;(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="self">self</span>) -&gt; T <span class="kw">where </span><span class="self">Self</span>: Sized;
}
<span class="macro">assert_obj_safe!</span>(MyUnsafeTrait);</code></pre></div>
