rustc now warns any time a
#[macro_export]
is used inside a function as it generates surprising results. Because doctests are run inside implicit test functions this means any use of#[macro_export]
inside a doctest will now warn. We do this inlightning-custom-message
to demonstrated how to use the crate, which now fails to compile.Here we fix this by adding an
fn main() {}
to the doctest, which causes doctests to be compiled as freestanding code rather than inside a test function.Note that while discussing this upstream it came up that rustc is also planning on changing the way doctests are compiled to compile an entire crate's doctests in one go rather than in separate crates, causing doctests to have a shared namespace which may generate future surprising outcomes.
