[rust-dev] Building in Local Git Repo?
I have a locally cloned fork of Rust. Is it okay to build in the top-level directory? Or is it better to build in a sub-directory or an out-of-repo directory? Thanks. Best regards, -Tom ___ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev

I always build in-tree, and it's fine. ___ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev

Maybe a note to that effect in the docs would be helpful--especially for someone coming from some popular repos that use CMake.

Re: [rust-dev] Rust discourse visibility [Was: Tail call compatibility]
I have no desire to use Discourse, and nearly certainly won't sign up for it (I don't even understand why it came to be). I have never used Rust discourse besides happening once upon it and reading the linked thread. My membership in mailing lists is neatly sorted and segregated, easily readable on my mobile devices without extra signing up or poking at badly designed websites. Discourse gives me zero advantage for yet *another* website signup, and probably with less usability, given my experience of web site development design. It's worth noting that every single libre software project I have any interest in (from the arcane to the popular) maintains the mailing list as the primary official channel of communiques. If the Rust admins kill the mailing list, I will probably drop out of participation (what a loss. ;) ) and limit participation to lurking reddit's /r/rust (I don't contribute thoughtful stuff to reddit in part due to the fact that mobile website = awful, readers = ehhh and occasional IRC questions.

Re: [rust-dev] Rust discourse visibility [Was: Tail call compatibility]
I agree on almost every word. I have well sorted and with love configured mail, where I track several Libre projects. Now it is interesting to track rust questions. But dropping maillist most probably means I will not participate any more. I could add, as example, I have very limited Internet connection on cristmass trip now so the mail on my mobile is the only reliable way to track what is happening. Think about this reason too.

Re: [rust-dev] Problems cross-compiling to ARM9
In the past when I've seen this error, it's because your C cross toolchain is built for a slightly wrong architecture. Can you verify that C programs cross compiled with your cross-gcc work correctly? Christmas is over, back to work. C works fine just by calling arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc. I hadn't tried an empty rust program, but that also stops with the same illegal instructions. The other hints are a bit over my head right now, as I haven't done much anything this close to metal. I'll continue studying this and report on whatever I find. I'm still wondering if rustc is somehow creating bad IR, since LLVM doesn't like that. -- Tomi Pieviläinen, +358 400 487 504 A: Because it disrupts the natural way of thinking.

Re: [rust-dev] Rust discourse visibility [Was: Tail call compatibility]
It's easy to set up discuss to email you all the time, too: give it a try. It had gotten pretty clear that having a catch-all mailing list wasn't going to scale.

I also can't start threads via the mail interface, and the mail interface regularly eats whole replies by people who are optimistic enough to to use it like nmatsakis. People can also edit their posts to append more information and I don't believe the mail interface would inform me of that. Also the settings page in Discourse invariably says We'll only email you if we haven't seen you in the last 10 minutes and you haven't read the thing we're emailing you about. which doesn't give me much confidence that I'm not somehow missing messages after following links on irc or wherever. It had gotten pretty clear that having a catch-all mailing list wasn't going to scale. It also doesn't scale for people to come to terms with a separate web based discussion forum for each project they keep up with or contribute to. Many projects use multiple mailing lists, it's not clear to me why that doesn't address the rust team's requirements. -ben Kevin On Dec 29, 2014 10:57 AM, Dmitry Romanov romano...@gmail.com wrote: I agree on almost every word.
