# Unwrapping Results With Compile-Time Guarantee of Infallibility The Rust standard type `Result` sometimes occurs parameterized with an error type that has no possible values, such as `std::convert::Infallible`. Consequently, calling the `unwrap` method on a `Result` value of such a type will never panic. Therein lies a maintainability hazard: if the error parameter type is later changed to one that can represent actually occurring errors, those uses of `unwrap` that could previously be relied upon to be infallible, quietly become liable to panic. To help prevent this from happening without a compile-time safeguard, this crate provides an alternative method `unwrap_infallible` that shall only be available for `Result` values with a known-impossible `Err` variant. ## License Licensed under either of * Apache License, Version 2.0 ([LICENSE-APACHE](LICENSE-APACHE) or http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0) * MIT license ([LICENSE-MIT](LICENSE-MIT) or http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT) at your option. ## Contribution Unless you explicitly state otherwise, any contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the work by you, as defined in the Apache-2.0 license, shall be dual licensed as above, without any additional terms or conditions.
