//! lint when items are used after statements

use rustc::lint::*;
use syntax::ast::*;
use utils::{in_macro, span_lint};

/// **What it does:** Checks for items declared after some statement in a block.
///
/// **Why is this bad?** Items live for the entire scope they are declared
/// in. But statements are processed in order. This might cause confusion as
/// it's hard to figure out which item is meant in a statement.
///
/// **Known problems:** None.
///
/// **Example:**
/// ```rust
/// fn foo() {
///     println!("cake");
/// }
///
/// fn main() {
///     foo(); // prints "foo"
///     fn foo() {
///         println!("foo");
///     }
///     foo(); // prints "foo"
/// }
/// ```
