Why can't this higher kinded lifetime associated type trait bound be satisfied?

Rust

Rust Problem Overview


trait A<'self_>: 'self_ {
    type I;
}
trait AMut
where
    Self: for<'self_> A<'self_>,
    for<'self_> <Self as A<'self_>>::I: 'static,
{
    fn mutate_self(&mut self);
}

fn foo<X>(x: &mut X)
where
    X: 'static + for<'a> A<'a> + AMut,
    for<'a> <X as A<'a>>::I: 'static,
{
    x.mutate_self();
}

Playground

This errors out with

error[E0280]: the requirement `for<'self_> <Self as A<'self_>>::I: 'static` is not satisfied
  --> src/lib.rs:4:1

error[E0280]: the requirement `for<'self_> <X as A<'self_>>::I: 'static` is not satisfied
  --> src/lib.rs:14:34

I would've thought that the bound on line 15 would satisfy the bound on line 7. What am I missing?

Solution 1 - Rust

Have you tried like this?

trait A<'self_>: 'self_ {
    type I;
}
trait AMut<'a>
where
    Self: A<'a>,
    <Self as A<'a>>::I: 'static,
{
    fn mutate_self(&mut self);
}

fn foo<X>(x: &mut X)
where
    X: 'static + for<'a> A<'a> + for<'a> AMut<'a>,
    for<'a> <X as A<'a>>::I: 'static,
{
    x.mutate_self();
}
