<h2 id="special-cases"><a href="#special-cases">Special cases</a></h2>
<p>This macro can parse the following additional types as a special case even
though they do not implement the <code>Parse</code> trait.</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="struct.Attribute.html" title="Attribute"><code>Attribute</code></a> — parses one attribute, allowing either outer like <code>#[...]</code>
or inner like <code>#![...]</code></li>
<li><a href="punctuated/struct.Punctuated.html" title="Punctuated&lt;T, P&gt;"><code>Punctuated&lt;T, P&gt;</code></a> — parses zero or more <code>T</code> separated by punctuation
<code>P</code> with optional trailing punctuation</li>
<li><a href="struct.Block.html#method.parse_within"><code>Vec&lt;Stmt&gt;</code></a> — parses the same as <code>Block::parse_within</code></li>
</ul>
<h2 id="panics"><a href="#panics">Panics</a></h2>
<p>Panics if the tokens fail to parse as the expected syntax tree type. The
caller is responsible for ensuring that the input tokens are syntactically
valid.</p>
