JFC. When will open source projects like @rustlang learn that putting toxic people like this in positions of ANY authority is unacceptable. https://github.com/marshallpierce/rust-base64/issues/213 . He's showing you who he is, and you're not listening.
(New to this series? Consider starting from part 1) At the end of the last post, we started to get some interesting functionality with the ability to resolve addresses to names in a module. This was the last functionality missing before we could implement breakpoints! This part adds the ability for ...

The State of Async Rust
Recently, I found myself returning to a compelling series of blog posts titled Zero-cost futures in Rust by Aaron Turon about what would become the foundation of Rust's async ecosyste…

https://crates.io/crates/syslog-ng-common/0.7.0
The colleague, who added @rustlang support to #syslogng left many years ago. Syslog-ng #Rust support was last touched 7 years ago. Still, there are regular downloads. Just #searchengines or there are real users? Does it actually work?
Stabilization PR for async fn in traits

Yet another programming blog. Thoughts on software and related misadventures.
Looking for graph tui
I'm working on a cli for a service I've made that maintains a node edge graph (think neo4j type thing). I want to be able to display a graph in the terminal in a sort of ascii art text form kinda like git log -graph. I haven't found any third part libraries that can do that and am looking for help.

Serde: from-source serde_derive restored on all platforms
Restore from-source serde_derive build on all platforms — eventually we'd like to use a first-class precompiled macro if such a thing becomes supported by cargo / crates.io
Potential shitstorm brewing over ubiquitous serde crate
I'm working on packaging serde for Fedora Linux, and I noticed that recent versions of serde_derive ship a precompiled binary now. This is problematic for us, since we cannot, under no circumstance...
serde_derive now ships a precompiled binary. This made a lot of people angry. The crate maintainer finally locked the issue.
std::any::Any for slices?
I recently ran into an issue where I wanted to use Any for slices. However, it only allows 'static types (based on what I read, this is because you get the same TypeId regardless of lifetimes).
I came up with this workaround which I think is safe:
rust
use std::{
any::{Any, TypeId},
marker::PhantomData,
};
#[derive(Clone, Debug)]
pub struct AnySlice<'a> {
tid: TypeId,
len: usize,
ptr: *const (),
marker: PhantomData<&'a ()>,
}
impl<'a> AnySlice<'a> {
pub fn from_slice(s: &'a [T]) -> Self {
Self {
len: s.len(),
ptr: s.as_ptr() as *const (),
tid: TypeId::of::(),
marker: PhantomData,
}
}
pub fn as_slice(&self) -> Option<&'a [T]> {
if TypeId::of::() != self.tid {
return None;
}
Some(unsafe { std::slice::from_raw_parts(self.ptr as *const T, self.len) })
}
pub fn is(&self) -> bool {
TypeId::o
I've implemented a few new things on lib.rs recently! New features page It lists all cargo features that a crate supports. It includes comments from Cargo.toml, neatly formatted as markdown, so you can learn what the features do. Since comments on features are rare, I also search crate's source co...

Lots of new features!
Thought I should share this with those who don't use users.rust-lang.org. Note: I'm not affiliated with lib.rs, I'm only reposting to lemmy.
