Suggestion for deriving PartialEq on a type containing dyn Fn() is very invalid #135989

@cyrgani

Description

@cyrgani

Code

use std::rc::Rc; #[derive(PartialEq)] pub struct Function { callback: Rc<dyn Fn()>, }

Current output

error[E0369]: binary operation `==` cannot be applied to type `Rc<dyn Fn()>`  --> src/lib.rs:5:5  | 3 | #[derive(PartialEq)]  | --------- in this derive macro expansion 4 | pub struct Function { 5 | callback: Rc<dyn Fn()>,  | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  |  = note: this error originates in the derive macro `PartialEq` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info) help: use parentheses to call these  | 5 | (callback: Rc<dyn Fn()>)(),  | + +++

Desired output

error[E0369]: binary operation `==` cannot be applied to type `Rc<dyn Fn()>`  --> src/lib.rs:5:5  | 3 | #[derive(PartialEq)]  | --------- in this derive macro expansion 4 | pub struct Function { 5 | callback: Rc<dyn Fn()>,  | ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^  |  = note: this error originates in the derive macro `PartialEq` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)
