Code very similar to the example does not work

[Tea Master]

I've actually modified it a bit, but it still seems weird:

error[E0282]: type annotations needed for `NodeEvent<'_, S>`
  --> src/client.rs:28:72
   |
28 | ...   let mut network_thread = network_listener.for_each_async(move |node_event| match node_event {
   |                                                                      ^^^^^^^^^^
   |
help: consider giving this closure parameter an explicit type, where the type for type parameter `S` is specified
   |
28 |         let mut network_thread = network_listener.for_each_async(move |node_event: NodeEvent<'_, S>| match node_event {
   |

It seems simple to fix, but it results in an infinite loop of type annotations required:

While the example doesn't contain them at all!

Hi, how are you compiling them? a simple cargo test for me compile the example without errors

[Luis Enrique Muñoz Martín]

What is your rust version?

[Tea Master]

My rustc version: rustc 1.74.1 (a28077b28 2023-12-04)

And I'm not compiling your examples, I'm compiling my modified code - your examples indeed work as expected. I don't know what's wrong with mine though.

I'm doing this:

let (network_handler, network_listener) = message_io::node::split();
let (server, _) = network_handler.network().connect(message_io::network::Transport::FramedTcp, SERVER_ADDRESS).unwrap();

let mut network_thread = network_listener.for_each_async(move |node_event| match node_event {
    message_io::node::NodeEvent::Network(net_event) => match net_event {
        message_io::network::NetEvent::Connected(_, is_ok) => {
            assert!(is_ok);

        },
        message_io::network::NetEvent::Message(_, data) => {

        },
        message_io::network::NetEvent::Disconnected(_) => {},
        message_io::network::NetEvent::Accepted(_, _) => unreachable!()
    },
    message_io::node::NodeEvent::Signal(_) => {}
});

I've updated rust and now it returns a diffrent, but very similar error:

[Luis Enrique Muñoz Martín]

You need to specify the signal type. You can see this in the examples, i.e, in the README example it's as follows (for an empty signal () type):

let (handler, listener) = node::split::<()>();

Please note that I can give support to the library itself. But I do not for external code.

Okay! It fixed the issue, it was just my inattention. Sorry for bothering you.
