Description
Summary

Lint Name
redundant_closure_call
Reproducer
I tried this code:
#![feature(async_closure)]
fn foo() -> Box<dyn std::future::Future<Output = u32>> {
let x = 0u32;
Box::new((async || x)())
}
fn main() {
}
I saw this happen:
warning: function `foo` is never used
--> src/main.rs:5:4
|
5 | fn foo() -> Box<dyn std::future::Future<Output = u32>> {
| ^^^
|
= note: `#[warn(dead_code)]` on by default
warning: try not to call a closure in the expression where it is declared
--> src/main.rs:7:14
|
7 | Box::new((async || x)())
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ help: try doing something like: `async { x }`
|
= help: for further information visit https://rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/master/index.html#redundant_closure_call
= note: `#[warn(clippy::redundant_closure_call)]` on by default
warning: `o` (bin "o" test) generated 2 warnings (run `cargo clippy --fix --bin "o" --tests` to apply 1 suggestion)
warning: failed to automatically apply fixes suggested by rustc to crate `o`
after fixes were automatically applied the compiler reported errors within these files:
* src/main.rs
This likely indicates a bug in either rustc or cargo itself,
and we would appreciate a bug report! You're likely to see
a number of compiler warnings after this message which cargo
attempted to fix but failed. If you could open an issue at
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust-clippy/issues
quoting the full output of this command we'd be very appreciative!
Note that you may be able to make some more progress in the near-term
fixing code with the `--broken-code` flag
The following errors were reported:
error[E0373]: async block may outlive the current function, but it borrows `x`, which is owned by the current function
--> src/main.rs:7:14
|
7 | Box::new(async { x })
| ^^^^^^^^-^^
| | |
| | `x` is borrowed here
| may outlive borrowed value `x`
|
note: async block is returned here
--> src/main.rs:7:5
|
7 | Box::new(async { x })
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
help: to force the async block to take ownership of `x` (and any other referenced variables), use the `move` keyword
|
7 | Box::new(async move { x })
| ++++
error: aborting due to 1 previous error
