Trait TryInto

trait TryInto<T>: Sized

An attempted conversion that consumes self, which may or may not be expensive.

Library authors should usually not directly implement this trait, but should prefer implementing the TryFrom trait, which offers greater flexibility and provides an equivalent TryInto implementation for free, thanks to a blanket implementation in the standard library. For more information on this, see the documentation for Into.

Prefer using TryInto over TryFrom when specifying trait bounds on a generic function to ensure that types that only implement TryInto can be used as well.

Implementing TryInto

This suffers the same restrictions and reasoning as implementing Into, see there for details.

Associated Types

type Error

The type returned in the event of a conversion error.

Required Methods

fn try_into(self: Self) -> Result<T, <Self as >::Error>

Performs the conversion.
