Rust Result Error Example
This was a quick test to make sure I'm getting the basics of Rust's Result enum type. I tried to do this in an actual app but kept getting errors saying "expected 1 generic argument", "supplied 2 generic arguments".
fn main() {
match is_ok() {
Ok(text) => println!("Ok: {}", text),
Err(e) => println!("Error: {}", e),
}
match is_err() {
Ok(text) => println!("Ok: {}", text),
Err(e) => println!("Error: {}", e),
}
}
fn is_ok() -> Result<String, &'static str> {
Ok("it worked".to_string())
}
fn is_err() -> Result<String, &'static str> {
Err("it failed")
}
Output:
Ok: it worked
Error: it failed
