Subject: [PATCH v2 10/20] rust: pin-init: internal: pin_data: add `with_project` method
Date: Thu, 08 Oct 2026 20:24:34 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261008-dev-selfref-v2-10-e280b3c8fba5@garyguo.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261008-dev-selfref-v2-0-e280b3c8fba5@garyguo.net>
The `project` method needs to perform covariant coercion on covariant
fields, causing them to no longer being mutable. Implement a `with_project`
that does not require covariant coercion by using higher-ranked trait
bounds, thus allow the fields to be assignable inside the callback.
This mechanism can also be used to access non-covariant fields.
