Language edition/toolchain drift
Rust 2024 boxed slice into_iter edition change Box<[T]> IntoIterator item type
A generic helper compiles but selects a different iterator item type after the edition/toolchain change.
Agent Quick Fix
Repair against the current Rust 2024 contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.
Product: Rust 2024
Current-contract area: Boxed-slice `.into_iter()` changes resolution
Likely root cause: A generic helper compiles but selects a different iterator item type after the edition/toolchain change.
Repair direction: Verifier checks idiomatic migration while preserving cross-version intent where required.
Symptom
A generic helper compiles but selects a different iterator item type after the edition/toolchain change.
Why This Happens
Source may compile under an older edition/toolchain; current edition migration rules and tool metadata are external to the repo's immediate error context.
Common Wrong Fixes
- Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
- Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
- Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
