Hello!I was surprised to find the following compile and run without any bother: #[deriving(Show)] pub enum MyEnum { Path } fn main() { let p = Path::new("/filepath/"); let p2 = Path; println!("{}",p.as_str()); println!("{}",p2); } % ./run Some(/filepath) Path What is the name resolution rule that stops MyEnum's Path overriding the posix Path struct? I'm interested because racer gets this wrong at the moment.
Rust has two namespaces: a type namespace and a value namespace. (Modules are in the type namespace.) Structs are in the type namespace and enum variants are in the value namespace.
