Bleed Less during Runtime with Rust’s Lifetime

August 14, 2020August 14, 2020RustRust, Rust programming language

Reading Time: 3 minutes “Sweat more in training (Compile Time), Bleed less in Battle (Run-Time)”. I think this old warrior mantra fits best for Rust Programmers. There are few new concepts introduced by rust-like Ownership and Lifetime, which are hard to grasp even for an experienced coder in the beginning. So the question is, why new features? And how it makes Rust different from other languages. Why Rust? One Continue Reading

Prevent Breaking Code Changes in Future Releases using `non exhaustive` enums in Rust

August 3, 2020August 3, 2020RustEnumerations, Rust, Rust programming language, Rust Projects

Reading Time: 2 minutes Hello everyone, recently I have come across a feature in Rust, known as non_exhaustive. It was introduced in Rust 1.40.0 . This attribute prevents source code-breaking changes in projects downstream. enums can be non-exhaustive or exhaustive, depending upon their needs. A non-exhaustive enum indicates that this enum may get new value in the future. By adding #[non_exhaustive] attribute, we can create a non-exhaustive enum which Continue Reading
