<h1 id="syntax" class="section-header"><a href="#syntax">Syntax</a></h1>
<p>A span expression of type <a href="https://docs.rs/proc-macro2/0.4/proc_macro2/struct.Span.html"><code>Span</code></a>, followed by <code>=&gt;</code>, followed by the tokens
to quote. The span expression should be brief -- use a variable for anything
more than a few characters. There should be no space before the <code>=&gt;</code> token.</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">

};</pre>
<p>The lack of space before the <code>=&gt;</code> should look jarring to Rust programmers
and this is intentional. The formatting is designed to be visibly
off-balance and draw the eye a particular way, due to the span expression
being evaluated in the context of the procedural macro and the remaining
tokens being evaluated in the generated code.</p>
<h1 id="hygiene" class="section-header"><a href="#hygiene">Hygiene</a></h1>
<p>Any interpolated tokens preserve the <code>Span</code> information provided by their
<code>ToTokens</code> implementation. Tokens that originate within the <code>quote_spanned!</code>
invocation are spanned with the given span argument.</p>
<h1 id="example" class="section-header"><a href="#example">Example</a></h1>
<p>The following procedural macro code uses <code>quote_spanned!</code> to assert that a
particular Rust type implements the <a href="https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/marker/trait.Sync.html"><code>Sync</code></a> trait so that references can be
safely shared between threads.</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">ty_span</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">ty</span>.<span class="ident">span</span>();
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">assert_sync</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="macro">quote_spanned</span><span class="macro">!</span> {<span class="ident">ty_span</span><span class="op">=&gt;</span>
<span class="kw">struct</span> <span class="ident">_AssertSync</span> <span class="kw">where</span> #<span class="ident">ty</span>: <span class="ident">Sync</span>;
};</pre>
<p>If the assertion fails, the user will see an error like the following. The
input span of their type is hightlighted in the error.</p>
<pre><code class="language-text">error[E0277]: the trait bound `*const (): std::marker::Sync` is not satisfied
--&gt; src/main.rs:10:21
|
10 | static ref PTR: *const () = &amp;();
| ^^^^^^^^^ `*const ()` cannot be shared between threads safely
</code></pre>
<p>In this example it is important for the where-clause to be spanned with the
line/column information of the user's input type so that error messages are
placed appropriately by the compiler. But it is also incredibly important
that <code>Sync</code> resolves at the macro definition site and not the macro call
site. If we resolve <code>Sync</code> at the same span that the user's type is going to
be resolved, then they could bypass our check by defining their own trait
named <code>Sync</code> that is implemented for their type.</p>

<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>)
