Error code E0614
Attempted to dereference a variable which cannot be dereferenced.
Erroneous code example:
#![allow(unused)] fn main() { let y = 0u32; *y; // error: type `u32` cannot be dereferenced }
Only types implementing std::ops::Deref
can be dereferenced (such as &T
).
Example:
#![allow(unused)] fn main() { let y = 0u32; let x = &y; // So here, `x` is a `&u32`, so we can dereference it: *x; // ok! }
