Description
I included ethers-core 2.0.7 in my build and got the following error when compiling:
error[E0015]: cannot call non-const fn ethabi::ethereum_types::U256::one in constant functions
--> /Users/chloenguyen/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/ethers-core-2.0.7/src/types/i256.rs:128:14

= note: calls in constant functions are limited to constant functions, tuple structs and tuple variants

I'm getting this error too, and I've identified the problem. ethereum-types v0.14.1 depends on primitive-types v0.12 which depends on uint v0.9.0.

However, uint v0.9.0 (and up through v0.9.3) has its fn one defined without the const qualifier, whereas uint v0.9.4 has the const qualifier.

See https://docs.rs/uint/0.9.3/src/uint/uint.rs.html#795 and https://docs.rs/uint/0.9.4/src/uint/uint.rs.html#788

The solution is to require uint v0.9.4 or higher. This can be done at 3 different levels:

• In your own crate. This is the easiest to do, since you control your own crate.
• In the ethers-core crate, since this is where the error regarding const actually occurs.
• In the ethereum-types crate, since it would be better if the type definitions it provided had maximal constness -- ultimately it belongs here.
