 "##,
 
+E0562: r##"
+Abstract return types (written `impl Trait` for some trait `Trait`) are only
+allowed as function return types.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0562
+#![feature(conservative_impl_trait)]
+
+fn main() {
+    let count_to_ten: impl Iterator<Item=usize> = 0..10;
+    // error: `impl Trait` not allowed outside of function and inherent method
+    //        return types
+    for i in count_to_ten {
+        println!("{}", i);
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Make sure `impl Trait` only appears in return-type position.
+
+```
