Another erroneous code example:
```compile_fail,E0404
struct Foo;
type Foo = Iterator<Item=String>;
fn bar<T: Foo>(t: T) {} // error: `Foo` is not a trait
fn bar<T: Foo>(t: T) {} // error: `Foo` is a type alias

Alternatively, you could introduce a new trait with your desired restrictions
as a super trait:
```
trait Foo {
// some functions
}
# trait Foo {}
# struct Bar;
# impl Foo for Bar {}
trait Qux: Foo {} // Anything that implements Qux also needs to implement Foo
fn baz<T: Qux>(t: T) {} // also ok!
```
Finally, if you are on nightly and want to use a trait alias
instead of a type alias, you should use `#![feature(trait_alias)]`:
```
#![feature(trait_alias)]
trait Foo = Iterator<Item=String>;
fn bar<T: Foo>(t: T) {} // ok!
```
