Module core::panicking

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (core_panic)

Panic support for core

The core library cannot define panicking, but it does declare panicking. This means that the functions inside of core are allowed to panic, but to be useful an upstream crate must define panicking for core to use. The current interface for panicking is:

fn panic_impl(pi: &core::panic::PanicInfo<'_>) -> !

This definition allows for panicking with any general message, but it does not allow for failing with a Box<Any> value. (PanicInfo just contains a &(dyn Any + Send), for which we fill in a dummy value in PanicInfo::internal_constructor.) The reason for this is that core is not allowed to allocate.

This module contains a few other panicking functions, but these are just the necessary lang items for the compiler. All panics are funneled through this one function. The actual symbol is declared through the #[panic_handler] attribute.

Enums

• AssertKindExperimental

Functions

• assert_failedExperimental
  Internal function for assert_eq! and assert_ne! macros
• assert_failed_inner 🔒 Experimental
  Non-generic version of the above functions, to avoid code bloat.
• assert_matches_failedExperimental
  Internal function for assert_match!
• const_panic_fmtExperimental
  This function is used instead of panic_fmt in const eval.
• panicExperimental
  The underlying implementation of core’s panic! macro when no formatting is used.
• panic_bounds_check 🔒 Experimental
• panic_cannot_unwind 🔒 Experimental
  Panic because we cannot unwind out of a function.
• panic_displayExperimental
• panic_fmtExperimental
  The entry point for panicking with a formatted message.
• panic_misaligned_pointer_dereference 🔒 Experimental
• panic_nounwindExperimental
  Like panic, but without unwinding and track_caller to reduce the impact on codesize.
• panic_nounwind_fmtExperimental
  Like panic_fmt, but for non-unwinding panics.
• panic_strExperimental
• unreachable_displayExperimental
