For your first question, you could enable the owned-heap-memory warning
as an error for the crate in which you want to avoid heap memory. If this
doesn't do exactly what you want, you may be able to write your own lint to
do what you want http://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc/lint/

Dear Rust Developers,
I'm a senior Computer Science undergraduate student at the University of
British Columbia. As part of my degree I have to complete an undergraduate
thesis which is a project of around 220 hours between now and next April.
Rust is a language that has caught my eye and I would
Hello Rust devs!
I've been following Rust off-and-on for about a year, but in the last
month I actually started trying to do some development in it. I
haven't done a huge amount with Rust yet, but I'm hoping some first
impressions from a newbie like myself might be useful. I come from a
C++ and
Disclaimer: please take all of this with a huge grain of salt. This
feedback is meant with the humility of someone who surely doesn't
fully understand the language yet and hasn't invested enough time into
yet to be taken seriously. Much of what I say may have little bearing
on anything.
let mut v = vec!(1i, 2, 3, 4, 5);
v[2] = 7; // Not allowed
Instead I had to do:
*v.get_mut(2) = 7;
I have to admit, this caught me off guard as well. Was it a specific design
decision?

Hey there Victor,
There are plenty of interesting projects that need to get done. The places
I would suggest looking would be the active RFCs [1] and the interesting
projects in our bug database [2]. Before you do anything though, you should
check with the RFC author to see if someone's already
Re: `mod`, `use`, and `extern crate`:
My preferred solution so far has been to have one file that has the `extern
crate` and `mod` statements (usually projectname.rs), and then my other
files (e.g. main.rs) have only `use` statements.

A project I'd love to see (either separate, or eventually baked into the
test harness), is test coverage data. Something like how Go's cover[1]
works, by adding counters to the source code, seems simplest. I've thought
about this, and it could either be a CLI tool, like `rustc --cover --test`,
or
LLVM already has support for instrumenting code to generate gcov data,
I believe Luqman and Huon have looked into this, at least slightly.

Regarding rust-crypto and timing attacks: in general the library tries to
provide constant time implementations where possible. There are two
implementations of AES - the AES-NI implementation and a bit-sliced pure
software implementation. There isn't currently a table lookup based
implementation
Well, I've been looking forward to an actor library (
https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/3573) although I think someone
already wrote a paper on that.
