A Rust crate providing the paste! macro for concatenating identifiers at compile time, enabling macros to define new items with pasted names. It works on stable Rust 1.31+ but is no longer maintained.
Use cases
- concatenate identifiers in rust macros
- generate getter methods with dynamic names
- define new items with pasted identifiers
- replace concat_idents in stable rust
- build macro_rules macros that create named functions
When to choose
- you need identifier pasting in macro_rules macros on stable Rust
- you're maintaining an existing crate that already depends on paste
When to avoid
- starting a new project, since the crate is unmaintained
- you can use nightly concat_idents or newer alternatives
- you only need to reference existing identifiers, not define new ones
