Description
Using the following flags
--force-warn clippy::iter-on-single-items
this code:
use std::option::IntoIter;
fn takes_into_iter(_: impl IntoIterator<Item = i32>) {}
macro_rules! x {
($e:expr) => {
takes_into_iter($e); // lint here because `.into_iter()` is "redundant"
let _: IntoIter<i32> = $e; // removing `.into_iter()` leads to a type error here
};
}
fn main() {
x!(Some(5).into_iter());
}
caused the following diagnostics:
