Macros

A number of minor features of Rust are not central enough to have their own syntax, and yet are not implementable as functions. Instead, they are given names, and invoked through a consistent syntax: some_extension!(...).

Thre are two ways to define new macros:

• Macros by Example define new syntax in a higher-level, declarative way.
• Procedural Macros can be used to implement custom derive.
