[rust-dev] Published Rust Book?

[Ivo Balbaert]

Hi,

I heard Packt Publishing is working on a Rust book to appear around Apr
2015.

Best regards,

Ivo

I am very excited by Rust and its wonderful, integrated tool set, etc.  I
wonder if a published book is in the planning?  I found no reference to such
in the Gmane archives of this list, nor did I see anything planned at
Manning pubs.

Best regards,

Hi

I think this is because the language was evolving  very rapidly until
recently. I guess books can be expected around the time Rust 1.0 is
released.

If the author(s) are looking for technical reviewers, contact me off list as
I'd be happy to help out if needed.

[rust-dev] Rust build farm

[Tom Browder]

I notice bugs referring to pdf and build platforms without pdf capability,
which I am very interested in. Is there a system for contributing a build
host to possibly help the situation?

Best regards,

[rust-dev] (FFI) Compile a dylib to x86 from a x86_64 machine and rust toolchain

[Alfredo Di Napoli]

Hello Rustacean,

I’ll go straight to the point: I’m building a small FFI library which needs
to be called
from a C++ x86 project. I cannot change the arch of the latter (it’s Doom3,
and relies on x86 arch entirely).
Thus linker reject my Rust library as “file was built for x86_64 which is
not the architecture being linked (i386)”.

Thus my question: It’s possible (without rebuilding the toolchain) to
instruct cargo to generate a x86 dylib?
Something like (fantasy syntax):

cargo build —arch-type=x86

Thanks in advance!
Alfredo

You need at least a 32-bit stdlib, but you can build with `cargo build
--target i686-unknown-linux-gnu` and it will "Just Work" assuming you have
the proper libs in $PREFIX/lib/rustlib/i686-unknown-linux-gnu.
http://doc.rust-lang.org/src/rustc_back/target/mod.rs.html#330 has a list
of the built-in targets, and
http://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc_back/target/index.html has docs on how to
create your own.
