New Features

  • #10059 Show the contents of references and pointers when debugging with LLDB. For example, now the content of &Vec, *const Vec and *mut Vec is rendered, in addition to previously supported Vec.

  • Attribute procedural macro improvements:

    • #10236 Show parameter hints inside attribute procedural macros

    • #10230 Show hints for chained method calls inside attribute procedural macros

    • #10182 Make intentions work inside an attribute macro expansion

    Note that attribute procedural macro expansion is disabled by default. If you want to try it out, enable org.rust.macros.proc.attr experimental feature.

  • #10200 Highlight that an underscore expression (_) can only be used in the left-hand side of an assignment

  • Detect new compiler errors:

    • #10193 Annotate mismatched members in trait implementation (E0323, E0324, E0325)

    • #10179 Annotate when an inherent implementation was written on a dyn auto trait (E0785)

    • #10176 Detect if the Copy trait was implemented on a type that is neither a struct nor an enum (E0206)
