error[E0010]: allocations are not allowed in constants --> $DIR/E0010-teach.rs:5:23 | LL | const CON: Vec = vec![1, 2, 3]; | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ allocation not allowed in constants | = note: The value of statics and constants must be known at compile time, and they live for the entire lifetime of a program. Creating a boxed value allocates memory on the heap at runtime, and therefore cannot be done at compile time. = note: this error originates in the macro `vec` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info) error[E0015]: cannot call non-const fn `slice::::into_vec::` in constants --> $DIR/E0010-teach.rs:5:23 | LL | const CON: Vec = vec![1, 2, 3]; | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ | = note: calls in constants are limited to constant functions, tuple structs and tuple variants = note: this error originates in the macro `vec` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info) error: aborting due to 2 previous errors Some errors have detailed explanations: E0010, E0015.
