在同一功能中多次使用self

我与借阅检查器有一个论点。我的问题稍微复杂一点，但是在这种情况下，我使用的是类似结构的缓冲区。我的缓冲区具有一个函数safe_write_to_slot，该函数首先检索第一个空元素（返回Ok（位置）或Err（错误消息）的结果），然后将值写入该检索到的位置。但是问题是，当我将检索到的位置分配给一个值时，rust会抱怨我稍后再使用一次self。我如何首先调用一个返回结果的（self）函数，然后继续使用self做一些动作？

use std::result::Result;

struct Elems {
    pub elems : Vec<int>,
}

impl Elems {
    pub fn new() -> Elems {
        Elems{elems: vec![0,0,0,0,0,0]}
    }

    pub fn safe_write_to_slot(&mut self, elem : uint) -> Result<(), &str> {
        let loc = try!(self.get_slot());

        self.unsafe_write_to_slot(loc);

        Ok(())
    }

    pub fn get_slot(&self) -> Result<uint, &str>{
        let mut loc = -1i;

        for x in range(0, self.elems.len()) {
            if *self.elems.get(x) == 0 {
                loc = x as int;
            }
        }

        if loc != -1 { Ok(loc as uint) } else { Err("No free slots") }
    }

    fn unsafe_write_to_slot(&mut self, elem : uint) {
        self.elems[elem] = 1;
    }
}

我得到的错误是：
