Rollup merge of #124778 - fmease:fix-diag-msg-parse-meta-item, r=nnethercote
Fix parse error message for meta items
Addresses rust-lang/rust#122796 (comment), cc [``@]Thomasdezeeuw.``
For attrs inside of a macro like `#[doc(alias = $ident)]` or `#[cfg(feature = $ident)]` where `$ident` is a macro metavariable of fragment kind `ident`, we used to say the following when expanded (with `$ident` ⟼ `ident`):
```
error: expected unsuffixed literal or identifier, found `ident`
--> weird.rs:6:19
|
6 | #[cfg(feature = $ident)]
| ^^^^^^
...
11 | m!(id);
| ------ in this macro invocation
|
= note: this error originates in the macro `m` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)
```
This was incorrect and caused confusion, justifiably so (see #122796).
In this position, we only accept/expect *unsuffixed literals* which consist of numeric & string literals as well as the boolean literals / the keywords / the reserved identifiers `false` & `true` **but not** arbitrary identifiers.
Furthermore, we used to suggest garbage when encountering unexpected non-identifier tokens:
```
error: expected unsuffixed literal, found `-`
--> weird.rs:16:17
|
16 | #[cfg(feature = -1)]
| ^
|
help: surround the identifier with quotation marks to parse it as a string
|
16 | #[cfg(feature =" "-1)]
| + +
```
Now we no longer do.File tree
