I'm new to rust programming and don't understand a lot, but when using rust-analyzer in Vscode, tooltips in files other than main.rs do not work. I initialize the project using the cargo new command.
what is file name ?
example a.rs
create file lib.rs and write
pub mod a;

As parinya.ao said, in Rust the module tree is not automatically mapped to the file structure, but is manually mapped by the programmer.
In other words, everytime that you create a file you need to manually add it to the module tree.

Thank you very much, everything worked! I thought that I could just add the line βpub mod a.rsβ to main.rs.
Correction: I meant you should put this line in lib.rs:
```rust
pub mod a;You can. You don't need a lib.rs. Just put
pub mod a;
At the top of your main.rs.
Note: No .rs after the module name.

Of course, I didn't add .rs to the mod line, but whether I use lib.rs or not it works unstable for multiple files.
In more detail, in addition to main.rs there are two files:
one file contains a function for working with a third-party crate,
the second file contains a trait and implementation for the types in this crate.
When including these files in main.rs/lib.rs auto-completion works only for one file. All files are located in /src
UPD: it doesn't work only for one specific file, if I add new ones then autocompletion works well
