Now that Rust reached v1.0, I may finally look into it without the fear of wasting time to learn stuff that will change within next months.
Now that Rust reached v1.0, I may finally look into it without the fear of wasting time to learn stuff that will change within next months. (It's quite sad, though, that recently released Debian Jessie won't have it in its main repositories.) Allow me to ask some questions, because I cannot easily find the answers and they're IMHO crucial for wider Rust adoption: 1. What CPU architectures/platforms Rust currently supports? 2. What's the state of cross-compilation support? Most of devs have workstation on i386/amd64, but some of us may work with ARM, PowerPC and other architectures. Rust's memory safety seems appealing for embedded solutions, but can it be used there already? BTW The install page is not well-thought-out. http://www.rust-lang.org/install.html Unless I hover on the 32-bit/64-bit links and read addresses they point to, there's no way to tell whether it's for x86 or ARM for instance. And installation via piping script that is being downloaded to shell is something that shouldn't be present at all.
