General Usage

Rust is a multi-paradigm, high-level, general purpose programming language. It is syntactically similar to C++ but was designed with memory safety in mind.

This module will add the rustc, cargo and related commands to your path.

In case you need to link against this library in your code, the following environmental variables have been defined:

  • $RUST_ROOT has been set to the root of the rust installation
  • $RUST_LIBDIR points to the directory containing the libraries
  • $RUST_INCDIR points to the directory containing the header files

You will probably wish to use these by adding the following flags to your compilation command (e.g. to CFLAGS in your Makefile):

  • -I$RUST_INCDIR

and the following flags to your link command (e.g. LDFLAGS in your Makefile):

  • -L$RUST_LIBDIR -Wl,-rpath,$RUST_LIBDIR
