"##,
E0504: r##"
This error occurs when an attempt is made to move a borrowed variable into a
closure.
Example of erroneous code:
```compile_fail
struct FancyNum {
num: u8
}
fn main() {
let fancy_num = FancyNum { num: 5 };
let fancy_ref = &fancy_num;
let x = move || {
println!("child function: {}", fancy_num.num);
// error: cannot move `fancy_num` into closure because it is borrowed
};
x();
println!("main function: {}", fancy_ref.num);
}
```
Here, `fancy_num` is borrowed by `fancy_ref` and so cannot be moved into
the closure `x`. There is no way to move a value into a closure while it is
borrowed, as that would invalidate the borrow.
If the closure can't outlive the value being moved, try using a reference
rather than moving:
```
struct FancyNum {
num: u8
}
fn main() {
let fancy_num = FancyNum { num: 5 };
let fancy_ref = &fancy_num;
let x = move || {
// fancy_ref is usable here because it doesn't move `fancy_num`
println!("child function: {}", fancy_ref.num);
};
x();
println!("main function: {}", fancy_num.num);
}
```
If the value has to be borrowed and then moved, try limiting the lifetime of
the borrow using a scoped block:
```
struct FancyNum {
num: u8
}
fn main() {
let fancy_num = FancyNum { num: 5 };
{
let fancy_ref = &fancy_num;
println!("main function: {}", fancy_ref.num);
// `fancy_ref` goes out of scope here
}
let x = move || {
// `fancy_num` can be moved now (no more references exist)
println!("child function: {}", fancy_num.num);
};
x();
}
```
If the lifetime of a reference isn't enough, such as in the case of threading,
consider using an `Arc` to create a reference-counted value:
```
use std::sync::Arc;
use std::thread;
struct FancyNum {
num: u8
}
fn main() {
let fancy_ref1 = Arc::new(FancyNum { num: 5 });
let fancy_ref2 = fancy_ref1.clone();
let x = thread::spawn(move || {
// `fancy_ref1` can be moved and has a `'static` lifetime
println!("child thread: {}", fancy_ref1.num);
});
x.join().expect("child thread should finish");
println!("main thread: {}", fancy_ref2.num);
}
```
