描述

Description

The reason why a loop will never actually complete isn't always obvious (see #16054 for an example). For such cases it would be nice to have a note pointing out all the locations where this occurs. Obvious causes ideally wouldn't get any additional output.

Examples

loop {
    do_something();
    // No need to point this out.
    panic!();
}
// Imagine something less obvious.
let x = || Some(panic!());

loop {
    // Why doesn't this loop?
    x().unwrap();
}
