#### Note: this error code is no longer emitted by the compiler.

This error occurs when an attempt is made to partially reinitialize a
structure that is currently uninitialized.

For example, this can happen when a drop has taken place:

```compile_fail
struct Foo {
    a: u32,
}
impl Drop for Foo {
    fn drop(&mut self) { /* ... */ }
}

let mut x = Foo { a: 1 };
drop(x); // `x` is now uninitialized
x.a = 2; // error, partial reinitialization of uninitialized structure `t`
```

This error can be fixed by fully reinitializing the structure in question:

```
struct Foo {
    a: u32,
}
impl Drop for Foo {
    fn drop(&mut self) { /* ... */ }
}

let mut x = Foo { a: 1 };
drop(x);
x = Foo { a: 2 };
```
