RS.CLIPPY.SEMICOLON_OUTSIDE_BLOCK

Add a semicolon outside the block

This checker is a Clippy lint created by The Rust Project Contributors. The documentation shown here is a copy of the original documentation for: semicolon_outside_block. Copyright ©2025 The Rust Team. All rights reserved.

What it does

Suggests moving the semicolon from a block's final expression outside of the block.

Why restrict this?

For consistency it's best to have the semicolon inside/outside the block. Either way is fine and this lint suggests outside the block. Take a look at semicolon_inside_block for the other alternative.

Example

unsafe { f(x); }

Use instead:

unsafe { f(x) };

Configuration

semicolon-outside-block-ignore-multiline: Whether to lint only if it's singleline.

(default: false)
