code relies on type inference rules which are likely to change

[thany-noroozpour]

probably msg_send macro is using type inference rules which will be removed in the next coming rustc.
my current rustc version is rustc 1.19.0-nightly (d015610db 2017-06-05)

complete warning is:

• note: #[warn(resolve_trait_on_defaulted_unit)] on by default
• warning: this was previously accepted by the compiler but is being phased out; it will become a hard error in a future release!
• note: for more information, see issue #39216 Tracking issue for future-incompatibility lint resolve_trait_on_defaulted_unit rust-lang/rust#39216
• note: this error originates in a macro outside of the current crate

@Hossein-Noroozpour, can you share a snippet of your code that's triggering this warning?

Is it possible that you have some code that looks like this, with no annotated return type?

msg_send![obj, retain];

If so, I believe it should be fixed by adding a type annotation, like:

let _: () = msg_send![obj, retain];

Let me know if the msg_send! usage that causes this error is in the objc crate, but otherwise I think this is something that users of the crate will need to fix themselves.

Thanks, yes, this () was the problem. I think maybe you like to see this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44597919/simd-encoding-for-objective-c-runtime/44610154#44610154
the SIMD types have a weird problem in encoding, and unfortunately they are important part of the today graphic system of Mac OS.

Great, glad that fixed your problem!

Hmm, yeah, that's really interesting that the runtime just entirely skips simd arguments in encodings... definitely not what I would expect. I'll keep that in mind as I work on verify_message! (And now I'm curious to look into simd more, I haven't investigated it much...) Thanks for letting me know!
