Hi,
We are in the situation where we are about to have our first Rust direct
(optional) dependency. This is for the "pcodec" lossless codec
(https://github.com/pcodec/pcodec) that is used by some Zarr datasets.
It offers a "cpcodec" crate with C bindings which we can use.
I've tried in https://github.com/OSGeo/gdal/pull/14779 to offer
different options:
- by default to satisfy "casual" developers building GDAL who are mostly
seeking ease of build and are fine with automatic download of
dependencies (pcodec and corrosion-rs for the CMake rust integration),
using git at CMake time,
- as well as offering more control with manual settings - either by
pointing directly to an already installed cpcodec library, or by
pointing to the locations of the source tree of corrosion-rs and pcodec
- that should be more compatible of policies/constraints of packagers.
Review of people who might have integrated Rust crates in CMake C/C++
projects welcome. See the PR description for details.
