You tried to provide a generic argument to a type which doesn't need it. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0109 type X = u32; // error: type arguments are not allowed for this type type Y = bool<'static>; // error: lifetime parameters are not allowed on // this type ``` Check that you used the correct argument and that the definition is correct. Example: ``` type X = u32; // ok! type Y = bool; // ok! ``` Note that generic arguments for enum variant constructors go after the variant, not after the enum. For example, you would write `Option::None::`, rather than `Option::::None`.
