The functional record update syntax was used on something other than a struct. Erroneous code example: ```compile_fail,E0436 enum PublicationFrequency { Weekly, SemiMonthly { days: (u8, u8), annual_special: bool }, } fn one_up_competitor(competitor_frequency: PublicationFrequency) -> PublicationFrequency { match competitor_frequency { PublicationFrequency::Weekly => PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly { days: (1, 15), annual_special: false }, c @ PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly{ .. } => PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly { annual_special: true, ..c // error: functional record update // syntax requires a struct } } } ``` The functional record update syntax is only allowed for structs (struct-like enum variants don't qualify, for example). To fix the previous code, rewrite the expression without functional record update syntax: ``` enum PublicationFrequency { Weekly, SemiMonthly { days: (u8, u8), annual_special: bool }, } fn one_up_competitor(competitor_frequency: PublicationFrequency) -> PublicationFrequency { match competitor_frequency { PublicationFrequency::Weekly => PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly { days: (1, 15), annual_special: false }, PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly{ days, .. } => PublicationFrequency::SemiMonthly { days, annual_special: true // ok! } } } ```
