class Ameba::Rule::Lint::VoidOutsideLib

Overview

A rule that disallows uses of Void outside C lib bindings. Using Void outside of C lib bindings doesn't make sense, and can sometimes break the compiler. Nil should be used instead in these cases. Pointer(Void) is the only case that's allowed per this rule.

These are considered invalid:

def foo(bar : Void) : Slice(Void)?
end

alias Baz = Void

struct Qux < Void
end

YAML configuration example:

Lint/VoidOutsideLib:
  Enabled: true
