# Void

> The uninhabited void type for use in statically impossible cases.

## [Documentation](https://crates.fyi/crates/void/1.0.1)

The uninhabited type, `enum Void { }` is useful in dealing with cases you
know to be impossible. For instance, if you are implementing a trait which
allows for error checking, but your case always succeeds, you can mark the
error case or type as `Void`, signaling to the compiler it can never happen.

This crate also comes packed with a few traits offering extension methods to
`Result<T, Void>` and `Result<Void, T>`.

## Usage

Use the crates.io repository; add this to your `Cargo.toml` along
with the rest of your dependencies:

```toml
[dependencies]
void = "1"
```

Then, use `Void` in your crate:

```rust
extern crate void;
use void::Void;
```
