serde::de::value::StrDeserializer cannot be deserialized as borrowed str

help
#1

Subj example https://play.rust-lang.org/?version=stable&mode=debug&edition=2018&gist=f46c22c94f2c9633b9d8ab37e6e258ee

Anyone knows if it is intended?
Seems weird behavior to me, but I cannot create issue on serde as some "smart" guy put me into black list for no reason

P.s. if it looks like a bug, please report it to serde

#2

String literal"lolka" is not a valid JSON string. "/"lolka/"" is.

Edit: Somehow I was confused it with serde_json::Value. Please ignore it.

Umm this has nothing to do with json?

I directly supply deserialiezer to my Deserialize implementation.
If you change StrDeserialzier to BorrowedStrDeserializer it would work

I believe that is the intended behavior. You’re trying to borrow data from the &str by trying to deserialize to a &str. This is exactly what BorrowedStrSerializer is for. StrDeserializer just stores a &str for deserialization but does not allow it to be borrowed from.

Looks like Germany is the official sponsor for Serde deserialization
