Failed to derive Clone for structs with fields which have references

[yubrot]

Describe the bug
The following code will fail to derive.

To Reproduce

use derivative::*;

#[derive(Derivative, Debug)]
#[derivative(Clone(bound = ""), Copy(bound = ""))]
pub struct T<'a, A> {
    a: &'a String,
    b: &'a A,
}

Expected behavior
derive succeeds.

Errors

error[E0308]: mismatched types

  |          ^^^^^^^^^^
  |          |
  |          expected `&String`, found struct `String`
  |          help: consider borrowing here: `&Derivative`

Version (please complete the following information):

• rustup 1.23.1
• cargo 1.49.0
• rustc 1.49.0
• derivative 2.2.0

This will be fixed if the macro expansion uses UFCS Clone::clone(arg) instead of arg.clone(), ie #111

As I wrote there, the macro can be forced to use UFCS by annotating the borrow fields with clone_with = "Clone::clone", which for OP's case means:

use derivative::*;

#[derive(Derivative, Debug)]
#[derivative(Clone(bound = ""), Copy(bound = ""))]
pub struct T<'a, A> {
    #[derivative(Clone(clone_with = "Clone::clone"))]
    a: &'a String,
    #[derivative(Clone(clone_with = "Clone::clone"))]
    b: &'a A,
}
