Auto merge of rust-lang#87381 - Aaron1011:note-semi-trailing-macro, r…
…=petrochenkov Display an extra note for trailing semicolon lint with trailing macro Currently, we parse macros at the end of a block (e.g. `fn foo() { my_macro!() }`) as expressions, rather than statements. This means that a macro invoked in this position cannot expand to items or semicolon-terminated expressions. In the future, we might want to start parsing these kinds of macros as statements. This would make expansion more 'token-based' (i.e. macro expansion behaves (almost) as if you just textually replaced the macro invocation with its output). However, this is a breaking change (see PR rust-lang#78991), so it will require further discussion. Since the current behavior will not be changing any time soon, we need to address the interaction with the `SEMICOLON_IN_EXPRESSIONS_FROM_MACROS` lint. Since we are parsing the result of macro expansion as an expression, we will emit a lint if there's a trailing semicolon in the macro output. However, this results in a somewhat confusing message for users, since it visually looks like there should be no problem with having a semicolon at the end of a block (e.g. `fn foo() { my_macro!() }` => `fn foo() { produced_expr; }`) To help reduce confusion, this commit adds a note explaining that the macro is being interpreted as an expression. Additionally, we suggest adding a semicolon after the macro *invocation* - this will cause us to parse the macro call as a statement. We do *not* use a structured suggestion for this, since the user may actually want to remove the semicolon from the macro definition (allowing the block to evaluate to the expression produced by the macro).
