SIFR-CLASS-0006: Unsupported class declaration. - Sifr

SIFR-CLASS-0006 belongs to the Classes and declarations diagnostic family. It means: unsupported class declaration.

Why It Happens

The class declaration cannot be lowered into a safe Rust-backed representation. Check field initialization, methods, inheritance constraints, and constructor shape.

Use sifr --explain SIFR-CLASS-0006 locally to see the renderer’s exact message template and any machine-applicable suggestions for the compiler version you are running.

Erroneous Code

class User:
    name: str

user = User()

How To Fix It

Give class declarations a shape the compiler can lower: initialized fields, valid bases, unique variants, and supported field ordering.

Fixed Code

class User:
    name: str

    def __init__(self, name: str):
        self.name = name

user = User("Ada")
