6 /// example, the closures passed to [`Iterator::try_fold`] and
7 /// [`Iterator::try_for_each`] must return such a type.
8 ///
9 /// `Try` types are typically those containing two or more categories of values,
10 /// some subset of which are so commonly handled via early returns that it's
11 /// worth providing a terse (but still visible) syntax to make that easy.
12 ///
13 /// This is most often seen for error handling with [`Result`] and [`Option`].
14 /// The quintessential implementation of this trait is on [`ControlFlow`].
15 ///
16 /// # Using `Try` in Generic Code
17 ///
18 /// `Iterator::try_fold` was stabilized to call back in Rust 1.27, but
19 /// this trait is much newer. To illustrate the various associated types and
20 /// methods, let's implement our own version.
21 ///
22 /// As a reminder, an infallible version of a fold looks something like this:
23 /// ```
24 /// fn simple_fold<A, T>(
25 /// iter: impl Iterator<Item = T>,
26 /// mut accum: A,
27 /// mut f: impl FnMut(A, T) -> A,
28 /// ) -> A {
29 /// for x in iter {
30 /// accum = f(accum, x);
31 /// }
32 /// accum
33 /// }
34 /// ```
35 ///
36 /// So instead of `f` returning just an `A`, we'll need it to return some other
37 /// type that produces an `A` in the "don't short circuit" path. Conveniently,
38 /// that's also the type we need to return from the function.
39 ///
40 /// Let's add a new generic parameter `R` for that type, and bound it to the
41 /// output type that we want:
42 /// ```
43 /// # #![feature(try_trait_v2)]
44 /// # use std::ops::Try;
45 /// fn simple_try_fold_1<A, T, R: Try<Output = A>>(
46 /// iter: impl Iterator<Item = T>,
47 /// mut accum: A,
48 /// mut f: impl FnMut(A, T) -> R,
49 /// ) -> R {
50 /// todo!()
51 /// }
52 /// ```
53 ///
54 /// If we get through the entire iterator, we need to wrap up the accumulator
55 /// into the return type using [`Try::from_output`]:
56 /// ```
57 /// # #![feature(try_trait_v2)]

59 /// fn simple_try_fold_2<A, T, R: Try<Output = A>>(

68 /// ControlFlow::Break(_) => todo!(),
69 /// }
70 /// }
71 /// R::from_output(accum)
72 /// }
73 /// ```
74 ///
75 /// We'll also need [`FromResidual::from_residual`] to turn the residual back
76 /// into the original type. But because it's a supertrait of `Try`, we don't
77 /// need to mention it in the bounds. All types which implement `Try` can be
78 /// recreated from their corresponding residual, so we'll just call it:
79 /// ```
80 /// # #![feature(try_trait_v2)]

82 /// pub fn simple_try_fold_3<A, T, R: Try<Output = A>>(
