Language edition/toolchain drift
Rust 2024 reserved tokens macro input accepted before fails lexing edition 2024
A procedural or declarative macro input that was accepted before now fails lexing in edition 2024.
Agent Quick Fix
Repair against the current Rust 2024 contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.
Product: Rust 2024
Current-contract area: Reserved `##` token breaks a macro DSL
Likely root cause: A procedural or declarative macro input that was accepted before now fails lexing in edition 2024.
Repair direction: Verifier checks idiomatic migration while preserving cross-version intent where required.
Symptom
A procedural or declarative macro input that was accepted before now fails lexing in edition 2024.
Why This Happens
Source may compile under an older edition/toolchain; current edition migration rules and tool metadata are external to the repo's immediate error context.
Common Wrong Fixes
- Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
- Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
- Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
