Hi all

I've been wondering what the plan is in terms of build infrastructure for rust programmers. I'm working on a project using rust, and am using a shell script to compile. I've considered using a makefile, but the name of the output file for a crate isn't constant.

I don't mind working on this if nobody else has looked at it. If it's already a solved problem but just isn't in the tutorial, I'll summarise responses and add a chapter to the tutorial :-)

It's not solved. There's some discussion about cargo's relationship to the build system here: https://github.com/mozilla/rust/issues/1861. I kind of think that cargo+rustc is intended to be 'the build system', but I'm not sure. Possibly you and thoughtpolice are in the best position to know what we need to do in this area as you are actually building out of tree rust projects.

rustc deals with the library naming issue in its makefiles by using globs.
