This requires ownership of the string on the left. | let x = "Hello ".to_owned() + "World!"; error[E0369]: binary operation `+` cannot be applied to type `World` --> $DIR/issue-39018.rs:17:13 | 17 | let y = World::Hello + World::Goodbye; | ^^^^^^^^^^^^ | = note: an implementation of `std::ops::Add` might be missing for `World` error: aborting due to 2 previous errors
