<p>This is preferred over parsing a string because tokens are able to preserve
information about where in the user's code they were originally written (the
&quot;span&quot; of the token), possibly allowing the compiler to produce better error
messages.</p>
<p>This function parses a <code>proc_macro::TokenStream</code> which is the type used for
interop with the compiler in a procedural macro. To parse a
<code>proc_macro2::TokenStream</code>, use <a href="fn.parse2.html"><code>syn::parse2</code></a> instead.</p>
<p><em>This function is available if Syn is built with both the <code>&quot;parsing&quot;</code> and

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
