Expects incorrect argument count in nalgebra_glm::Vec3::new()

[TinBryn]

This is probably a really hard one as I'm guessing nalgebra-glm uses some fancy macro magic to make this work. This line of code is flagged by Rust-analyzer as expecting 4 arguments but found 3.

let _v3 = nalgebra_glm::Vec3::new(1.0, 2.0, 3.0);

while when I add a forth argument, rustc now flags it saying that it expects 3 arguments but found 4.

let _v4 = nalgebra_glm::Vec3::new(1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0);

Probably #10340, we don't support const generics and nalgebra-glm seems to be a wrapper around nalgebra: https://docs.rs/nalgebra-glm/0.15.0/nalgebra_glm/type.TVec3.html.

But forgive me for asking, what's a Vec3 with four components? Surely that doesn't compile? 😄.

[TinBryn]

It doesn't compile, rustc flags it as an error, but rust-analyzer flags the three argument version as an error.

I don't need anything near what nalgebra-glm provides, just some simple homogeneous 3d maths, so I'll look for crate with a simpler implementation/interface.

I know about https://crates.io/crates/ultraviolet and https://crates.io/crates/cgmath, but haven't tested them.
