    pub static DEPRECATED_WHERE_CLAUSE_LOCATION: &Lint

Expand description

The `deprecated_where_clause_location` lint detects when a where clause in front of the equals in an associated type.

#### §Example

    trait Trait {
      type Assoc<'a> where Self: 'a;
    }

    impl Trait for () {
      type Assoc<'a> where Self: 'a = ();
    }

{{produces}}

#### §Explanation

The preferred location for where clauses on associated types is after the type. However, for most of generic associated types development, it was only accepted before the equals. To provide a transition period and further evaluate this change, both are currently accepted. At some point in the future, this may be disallowed at an edition boundary; but, that is undecided currently.
