How to update a collection inside a struct in rust?

Probably this question already has been asked, maybe with different wording, but I couldn't find it. If this gets closed due to this, apologies, but I did try before.

In fact, the problem is simple:

use std::collections::BTreeSet;

pub struct Service {
    blobs: BTreeSet<u16>,
}

impl Service {
    fn new() -> Self {
        let bt: BTreeSet<u16> = BTreeSet::new();
        Self { blobs: bt }
    }

    fn insert(&self, val: u16) -> bool {
        &self.blobs.insert(val);
        true
    }
    fn print(&self) {
        println!("{}", self.blobs.len());
    }
}
fn main() {
    let s: Service = Service::new();
    s.print();
    s.insert(4);
    s.print();
}

When compiling this, I get:

`self` is a `&` reference, so the data it refers to cannot be borrowed as mutable

What I understand here, is that actually, I can't just update the treeset, as it's immutable.

So I tried with

pub struct Service {
    blobs: &'static mut BTreeSet<u16>,
}

and

  fn new() -> Self {
        let bt: &mut BTreeSet<u16> = &mut BTreeSet::new();
        Self { blobs: bt }
    }

but that yields creates a temporary value which is freed while still in use (while the original error is still there, so now I have two...)

I understand I should somehow make the BTreeSet mutable, but how?

Solution

Most of the time the error message just tell you how to fix the code, all hail rust compiler.

Fixed

use std::collections::BTreeSet;

pub struct Service {
    blobs: BTreeSet<u16>,
}

impl Service {
    fn new() -> Self {
        let bt: BTreeSet<u16> = BTreeSet::new();
        Self { blobs: bt }
    }

    fn insert(&mut self, val: u16) -> bool {
        self.blobs.insert(val)
    }
    fn print(&self) {
        println!("{}", self.blobs.len());
    }
}
fn main() {
    let mut s: Service = Service::new();
    s.print();
    s.insert(4);
    s.print();
}
