/// [`parse` module]: mod@crate::parse

///
///
/// # Intended usage
///
/// This macro must be called from a function that returns
/// `proc_macro::TokenStream`. Usually this will be your proc macro entry point,
/// the function that has the #\[proc_macro\] / #\[proc_macro_derive\] /
/// #\[proc_macro_attribute\] attribute.
///
/// ```
/// # extern crate proc_macro;
/// #
/// use proc_macro::TokenStream;
/// use syn::{parse_macro_input, Result};
/// use syn::parse::{Parse, ParseStream};
///
/// struct MyMacroInput {
/// /* ... */
/// }
///
/// impl Parse for MyMacroInput {
/// fn parse(input: ParseStream) -> Result {
/// /* ... */
/// # Ok(MyMacroInput {})
/// }
/// }
///
/// # const IGNORE: &str = stringify! {
/// #[proc_macro]
/// # };
/// pub fn my_macro(tokens: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
/// let input = parse_macro_input!(tokens as MyMacroInput);
///
/// /* ... */
/// # TokenStream::new()
/// }
/// ```
///
///
///
/// # Usage with Parser
///
/// This macro can also be used with the [`Parser` trait] for types that have
/// multiple ways that they can be parsed.
///
/// [`Parser` trait]: crate::parse::Parser
///
/// ```
/// # extern crate proc_macro;
/// #
/// # use proc_macro::TokenStream;
/// # use syn::{parse_macro_input, Result};
/// # use syn::parse::ParseStream;
/// #
/// # struct MyMacroInput {}
/// #
/// impl MyMacroInput {
/// fn parse_alternate(input: ParseStream) -> Result {
/// /* ... */
/// # Ok(MyMacroInput {})
/// }
/// }
///
/// # const IGNORE: &str = stringify! {
/// #[proc_macro]

/// pub fn my_macro(tokens: TokenStream) -> TokenStream {
/// let input = parse_macro_input!(tokens with MyMacroInput::parse_alternate);
///
/// /* ... */
/// # TokenStream::new()

/// ```
///
///
///
/// # Expansion
///
/// `parse_macro_input!($variable as $Type)` expands to something like:
///
/// ```no_run
/// # extern crate proc_macro;
