The `Self` keyword was used outside an impl, trait, or type definition. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0411 ::foo; // error: use of `Self` outside of an impl, trait, or type // definition ``` The `Self` keyword represents the current type, which explains why it can only be used inside an impl, trait, or type definition. It gives access to the associated items of a type: ``` trait Foo { type Bar; } trait Baz : Foo { fn bar() -> Self::Bar; // like this } ``` However, be careful when two types have a common associated type: ```compile_fail trait Foo { type Bar; } trait Foo2 { type Bar; } trait Baz : Foo + Foo2 { fn bar() -> Self::Bar; // error: ambiguous associated type `Bar` in bounds of `Self` } ``` This problem can be solved by specifying from which trait we want to use the `Bar` type: ``` trait Foo { type Bar; } trait Foo2 { type Bar; } trait Baz : Foo + Foo2 { fn bar() -> ::Bar; // ok! } ```
