The lifespan of the boxed value link is not long enough

The following code won't compile:

use std::borrow::Borrow;

struct Inner<'a> {
    v: Vec<&'a u8>,
}

struct Foo<'a> {
    inner: Inner<'a>,
    derp: Box<u8>,
}

impl<'a> Foo<'a> {
    fn new() -> Foo<'a> {
        let mut e = Foo {
            inner: Inner { v: vec![] },
            derp: Box::new(128),
        };
        e.inner.v.push(&*e.derp);

        return e;
    }

    fn derp(&mut self) {
        println!("{:?}", self.inner.v);
    }
}

fn main() {
    let mut f = Foo::new();

    f.derp();
}

      

        
        
        
      

    

I am getting the following error:

I think that the value inside the field actually persists for as long as 'a

, since it is a member Foo

that has exactly that lifetime.

I was wondering if this movement is confusing Foo

at the end of the new function, so if I try to do append in derp

. I am getting another error:

error[E0495]: cannot infer an appropriate lifetime for borrow expression due to conflicting requirements
  --> main.rs:20:27

   |                           ^^^^^^^^^^

      

        
        
        
      

    

which gives me no indication of what the compiler thinks the lifetime is a short value.
