An unresolved name was used. Example of erroneous codes: | |
``` | |
something_that_doesnt_exist::foo; | |
// error: unresolved name `something_that_doesnt_exist::foo` | |
// or: | |
trait Foo { | |
fn bar() { | |
Self; // error: unresolved name `Self` | |
} | |
} | |
// or: | |
let x = unknown_variable; // error: unresolved name `unknown_variable` | |
``` | |
Please verify that the name wasn't misspelled and ensure that the | |
identifier being referred to is valid for the given situation. Example: | |
``` | |
enum something_that_does_exist { | |
foo | |
} | |
// or: | |
mod something_that_does_exist { | |
pub static foo : i32 = 0i32; | |
} | |
something_that_does_exist::foo; // ok! | |
// or: | |
let unknown_variable = 12u32; | |
let x = unknown_variable; // ok! |
