[PATCH 2/2] rust: file: improve safety comments

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Some of the safety comments in `LocalFile`'s methods incorrectly refer to
the `File` type instead of `LocalFile`, so fix them to use the correct
type.

Also add missing Markdown code spans around lifetimes in the safety
comments, i.e. change 'a to `'a`.
