::unhandled-tt

Key: ::unhandled-tt

Category: shape · Severity: error

Source: src/diag/hints.nix:943

the unit value tt has no inference rule — there is exactly one type it can inhabit. The kernel still asks for an annotation to keep inference syntax-directed. Use ann tt unit at the use site, or check tt against an expected unit type.

Example

Hint::unhandled-tt means tt is in inference mode without an expected Unit type. The example shows the failing form first, then one way to give the checker the missing structure.

# Bad: tt reaches inference without an expected Unit type.
infer emptyCtx tt

# Better: annotate tt or check it against unit.
infer emptyCtx (ann tt unit)
