This error also includes the use of associated types with lifetime parameters.
```compile_fail,E0582
trait Foo {
type Assoc<'a>;
}
struct Bar<X, F>
where
X: Foo,
F: for<'a> Fn(X::Assoc<'a>) -> &'a i32
{
x: X,
f: F
}
```
This is as `Foo::Assoc<'a>` could be implemented by a type that does not use
the `'a` parameter, so there is no guarentee that `X::Assoc<'a>` actually uses
`'a`.
To fix this we can pass a dummy parameter:
```
# trait Foo {
# type Assoc<'a>;
# }
struct Bar<X, F>
where
X: Foo,
F: for<'a> Fn(X::Assoc<'a>, /* dummy */ &'a ()) -> &'a i32
{
x: X,
f: F
}
```
Note: The examples above used to be (erroneously) accepted by the
compiler, but this was since corrected. See [issue #33685] for more
details.
