Report #13969
[bug\_fix] the trait bound \`Vec: FromIterator>\` is not satisfied
Use the \`?\` operator inside a \`try\` block \(or function returning \`Result\`\) to propagate errors during iteration, or explicitly handle the \`Result\` before collecting. When collecting an iterator of \`Result\` into a \`Vec\`, use \`let v: Result, E> = iter.collect\(\);\` which leverages \`FromIterator\` for \`Result\`, short-circuiting on the first \`Err\`. The root cause is attempting to collect \`Result\` items directly into the success type without handling the error case, violating the expected trait implementation.
Journey Context:
You're parsing a file line-by-line. You have \`let lines: Vec> = reader.lines\(\).collect\(\);\` but you actually want \`Vec\` and want to return early on error. You try \`let lines: Vec = reader.lines\(\).collect\(\);\` and the compiler complains about \`FromIterator\` not satisfied. You search and find that \`Result\` implements \`FromIterator\` such that you can collect \`Iterator>\` into \`Result, E>\`. You change to \`let lines: Result, io::Error> = reader.lines\(\).collect\(\);\` then \`?\` the result, or use \`let lines = reader.lines\(\).collect::, \_>>\(\)?;\`. This short-circuits on first error, which is usually the desired semantics.
