### What it does Denies the configured methods and functions in clippy.toml Note: Even though this lint is warn-by-default, it will only trigger if methods are defined in the clippy.toml file. ### Why is this bad? Some methods are undesirable in certain contexts, and it's beneficial to lint for them as needed. ### Example An example clippy.toml configuration: ``` disallowed-methods = [ # Can use a string as the path of the disallowed method. "std::boxed::Box::new", # Can also use an inline table with a `path` key. { path = "std::time::Instant::now" }, # When using an inline table, can add a `reason` for why the method # is disallowed. { path = "std::vec::Vec::leak", reason = "no leaking memory" }, ] ``` ``` // Example code where clippy issues a warning let xs = vec![1, 2, 3, 4]; xs.leak(); // Vec::leak is disallowed in the config. // The diagnostic contains the message "no leaking memory". let _now = Instant::now(); // Instant::now is disallowed in the config. let _box = Box::new(3); // Box::new is disallowed in the config. ``` Use instead: ``` // Example code which does not raise clippy warning let mut xs = Vec::new(); // Vec::new is _not_ disallowed in the config. xs.push(123); // Vec::push is _not_ disallowed in the config. ```
