Struct rand::Error

pub struct Error { /* fields omitted */ }

Error type of random number generators

In order to be compatible with std and no_std, this type has two possible implementations: with std a boxed Error trait object is stored, while with no_std we merely store an error code.

Methods

impl Error

pub fn new<E>(err: E) -> Error where
    E: Into<Box<dyn Error + 'static + Send + Sync>>, 

Construct from any type supporting std::error::Error

Available only when configured with std.

See also From<NonZeroU32>, which is available with and without std.

pub fn inner(&self) -> &(dyn Error + 'static + Send + Sync)

Reference the inner error (std only)

When configured with std, this is a trivial operation and never panics. Without std, this method is simply unavailable.

pub fn take_inner(self) -> Box<dyn Error + 'static + Send + Sync>

Unwrap the inner error (std only)

When configured with std, this is a trivial operation and never panics. Without std, this method is simply unavailable.

pub fn code(&self) -> Option<NonZeroU32>

Retrieve the error code, if any.

If this Error was constructed via From<NonZeroU32>, then this method will return this NonZeroU32 code (for no_std this is always the case). Otherwise, this method will return None.

Trait Implementations

impl From<Error> for Error

fn from(error: Error) -> Error

Performs the conversion.

impl From<NonZeroU32> for Error

fn from(code: NonZeroU32) -> Error

Performs the conversion.

impl Debug for Error

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Error

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter) -> Result<(), Error>

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Error for Error

fn source(&self) -> Option<&(dyn Error + 'static)>

The lower-level source of this error, if any.

fn description(&self) -> &str

This method is soft-deprecated.

fn cause(&self) -> Option<&dyn Error>

Deprecated since 1.33.0:

replaced by Error::source, which can support downcasting

The lower-level cause of this error, if any.
