Description


macro_rules! fff {
    () => {
        struct St;
    };
}

fff!();

trait Tr {}

impl Tr for St {}

Hover for St shows 0 implementation, but it should show 1. We see the impl for type checking proposes so I think it is a bug in the "Find implementations".

Start with the provided Rust macro reproduction and the rust-analyzer “Find implementations” path; compare its result with the type-checking impl lookup mentioned in the report. Done means hover for St reports one implementation for Tr.
