+Explicitly implementing both Drop and Copy for a type is currently disallowed.

+incorrect and can lead to memory unsafety (see [issue #20126][iss20126]), so

+"##,

+E0204: r##"
+An attempt to implement the `Copy` trait for a struct failed because one of the
+fields does not implement `Copy`. To fix this, you must implement `Copy` for the
+mentioned field. Note that this may not be possible, as in the example of
+
+```
+struct Foo {
+    foo : Vec<u32>,
+}
+
+impl Copy for Foo { }
+```
+
+This fails because `Vec<T>` does not implement `Copy` for any `T`.
+
+Here's another example that will fail:
+
+```
+#[derive(Copy)]
+struct Foo<'a> {
+    ty: &'a mut bool,
+}
+```
+
+This fails because `&mut T` is not `Copy`, even when `T` is `Copy` (this
+differs from the behavior for `&T`, which is `Copy` when `T` is `Copy`).
+"##,
+
+E0205: r##"
+An attempt to implement the `Copy` trait for an enum failed because one of the
+variants does not implement `Copy`. To fix this, you must implement `Copy` for
+the mentioned variant. Note that this may not be possible, as in the example of
+
+```
+enum Foo {
+    Bar(Vec<u32>),
+    Baz,
+}
+
+impl Copy for Foo { }
+```
+
+This fails because `Vec<T>` does not implement `Copy` for any `T`.
+
+Here's another example that will fail:
+
+```
+#[derive(Copy)]
+enum Foo<'a> {
+    Bar(&'a mut bool),
+    Baz
+}
+```
+
+This fails because `&mut T` is not `Copy`, even when `T` is `Copy` (this
+differs from the behavior for `&T`, which is `Copy` when `T` is `Copy`).
+"##,
+
+E0206: r##"
+You can only implement `Copy` for a struct or enum. Both of the following
+examples will fail, because neither `i32` (primitive type) nor `&'static Bar`
+(reference to `Bar`) is a struct or enum:
+
+```
+type Foo = i32;
+impl Copy for Foo { } // error
+
+#[derive(Copy, Clone)]
+struct Bar;
+impl Copy for &'static Bar { } // error
+```
+"##,
+
+E0243: r##"
+This error indicates that not enough type parameters were found in a type or
+trait.
+
+For example, the `Foo` struct below is defined to be generic in `T`, but the
+type parameter is missing in the definition of `Bar`:
+
+```
+struct Foo<T> { x: T }
+
+struct Bar { x: Foo }
+```
+"##,
+
+E0244: r##"
+This error indicates that too many type parameters were found in a type or
+trait.
+
+For example, the `Foo` struct below has no type parameters, but is supplied
+with two in the definition of `Bar`:
+
+```
+struct Foo { x: bool }
+
+struct Bar<S, T> { x: Foo<S, T> }
+```
+"##,
+
+E0249: r##"
+This error indicates a constant expression for the array length was found, but
+it was not an integer (signed or unsigned) expression.
+
+Some examples of code that produces this error are:
+
+```
+const A: [u32; "hello"] = []; // error
+const B: [u32; true] = []; // error
+const C: [u32; 0.0] = []; // error
+"##,
+
+E0250: r##"
+This means there was an error while evaluating the expression for the length of
+a fixed-size array type.
+
+Some examples of code that produces this error are:
+
+```
+// divide by zero in the length expression
+const A: [u32; 1/0] = [];
+
+// Rust currently will not evaluate the function `foo` at compile time
+fn foo() -> usize { 12 }
+const B: [u32; foo()] = [];
+
+// it is an error to try to add `u8` and `f64`
+use std::{f64, u8};
+const C: [u32; u8::MAX + f64::EPSILON] = [];
+```
