Impossible case reached

[mrcnski]

Hi there,

We're seeing the following error when running clippy. I pasted the relevant excerpt below, and the full Travis job is here. The usual workaround of running cargo check first seems to work for now.

Let me know what additional information would be useful in debugging this. Running clippy 0.0.206 on this repo should be enough to reproduce the issue locally.

Crash happens somewhere in this file and you can simply run clippy in jni-rs repo to trigger it.
Cannot help with it.

edit:
Apparently clippy wasn't crashing one week ago for jni: CI log, PR

[phansch]

Going to take a look at this crash next

[alexander-irbis]

@phansch I cleaned up the clippy warnings here, if it helps.

[alexander-irbis]

Apparently clippy wasn't crashing one week ago for jni: CI log, PR

There was a "too many errors" message, so maybe clippy just did not reach the place where the error occurs. On a local fork clippy crashed there.

[idubrov]

This is the test case that crashes for us, with a similar backtrace:

trait Trait<'a, A> {}

impl<T> Trait<'static, T> for T {}

fn func<S: Trait<'static, ()>>(item: S) {}

P.S. I run on nightly-2018-07-31 with clippy installed via rustup.
P.P.S. Playground

[Marwes]

Seeing this when running clippy on https://github.com/gluon-lang/gluon (specifically the gluon_base crate which prevents clippy from running on the rest of the project).

[phansch]

Thank you for the minimal repro @idubrov. This is at the top of my todo list again now.
