early v late bound design and implementation background #94

Closed lcnr closed 1 year ago

lcnr commented 1 year ago

Summary

summarize the status quo of early and late bound lifetimes, things we have to keep in mind going forward, and relevant current implementation details.

Rationale

We currently don't have a shared understanding of the status quo and where we want to go from here. We also don't have any good documentation of this. This meeting should both result in a useful document we can merge into the rustc-dev-guide and a foundation for future discussions, e.g. https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/103448

Will also be good since the current rustc_dev_guide information on early/late bound lifetimes imo is lacking on information so it will be good to fill that out a bit with stuff from the deep dive doc
