<p>This macro creates a projection type according to the following rules:</p>
<ul>
<li>For the field that uses <code>#[pin]</code> attribute, makes the pinned reference to the field.</li>
<li>For the other fields, makes the unpinned reference to the field.</li>
</ul>
<p>And the following methods are implemented on the original type:</p>
original <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/pin/struct.Pin.html"title="struct core::pin::Pin"><code>Pin</code></a> type, it needs to use <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/pin/struct.Pin.html#method.as_mut"title="method core::pin::Pin::as_mut"><code>.as_mut()</code></a> to avoid
consuming the <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/pin/struct.Pin.html"title="struct core::pin::Pin"><code>Pin</code></a>.</p>
<p>This is equivalent to using <code>#[pin]</code> attribute for a <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/marker/struct.PhantomPinned.html"title="struct core::marker::PhantomPinned"><code>PhantomPinned</code></a> field.</p>
<p>Note that using <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/marker/struct.PhantomPinned.html"title="struct core::marker::PhantomPinned"><code>PhantomPinned</code></a> without <code>#[pin]</code> or <code>#[project(!Unpin)]</code>
<p>In order to correctly implement pin projections, a type’s <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/ops/drop/trait.Drop.html"title="trait core::ops::drop::Drop"><code>Drop</code></a> impl must not move out of any
<p>To implement <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/ops/drop/trait.Drop.html"title="trait core::ops::drop::Drop"><code>Drop</code></a> for type that has pin, add an <code>impl PinnedDrop</code> block at the end of the
<ahref="macro.pin_project.html"title="macro pin_project_lite::pin_project"><code>pin_project</code></a> macro block. PinnedDrop has the following interface:</p>
<p><code>pin_project!</code> implements the actual <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/ops/drop/trait.Drop.html"title="trait core::ops::drop::Drop"><code>Drop</code></a> trait via PinnedDrop you implemented. To
explicitly drop a type that implements PinnedDrop, use the <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/mem/fn.drop.html"title="fn core::mem::drop">drop</a> function just like dropping a
type that directly implements <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/ops/drop/trait.Drop.html"title="trait core::ops::drop::Drop"><code>Drop</code></a>.</p>
<p><code>PinnedDrop::drop</code> will never be called more than once, just like <ahref="https://doc.rust-lang.org/1.80.0/core/ops/drop/trait.Drop.html#tymethod.drop"title="method core::ops::drop::Drop::drop"><code>Drop::drop</code></a>.</p>
