# Error code E0615

Attempted to access a method like a field.

Erroneous code example:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    struct Foo {
        x: u32,
    }

    impl Foo {
        fn method(&self) {}
    }

    let f = Foo { x: 0 };
    f.method; // error: attempted to take value of method `method` on type `Foo`
    }

If you want to use a method, add `()` after it:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    struct Foo { x: u32 }
    impl Foo { fn method(&self) {} }
    let f = Foo { x: 0 };
    f.method();
    }

However, if you wanted to access a field of a struct check that the field name is spelled correctly. Example:

    #![allow(unused)]
    fn main() {
    struct Foo { x: u32 }
    impl Foo { fn method(&self) {} }
    let f = Foo { x: 0 };
    println!("{}", f.x);
    }
