why rust?
hate loading times? rust is as C++ fast and unfortunately not easier to program than “user friendly” as C++
(from src): Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
why the name?
why the dirty name? usually users associate rust with metal that is broken down by oxygen into not-so-usefull dirt
“named it Rust, after a group of remarkably hardy fungi that are, he says, “over-engineered for survival”” (src)
#WOW! need a rust ebook? (git clone https://github.com/goldcoders/Rust.git)
“Basically, rust-gdb is a wrapper that loads external Python pretty-printing scripts into GDB. This is useful (and somewhat necessary) when debugging more complex Rust programs because it significantly improves the display of Rust data types.” (src)
what the developer has to do:
hostnamectl; # tested on
Static hostname: lenovo
Operating System: Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster)
Kernel: Linux 4.19.0-17-amd64
Architecture: x86-64
setup rust like in this article
# test that paths are working rustc --version rustc 1.53.0 (53cb7b09b 2021-06-17) # create new project with cargo cargo new helloworld cd ./helloworld/src cargo build Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.00s cargo run Finished dev [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 0.00s Running `/home/devrust2/helloworld/target/debug/helloworld` Hello, world! vim main.rs # within vim :packadd termdebug :let termdebugger="rust-gdb" :Termdebug # now this should show up
congrats! ready to debug 🙂
within gdb:
# load the compiled binary with symbols
file ../target/debug/helloworld # then the developer is ready to start start # hurray! :) step debugging works :)

PS: Conque-GDB vim plugin can (probably) enable rust and c++ setp debugging in vim prior to v.8.1 too, but it was not updated since 2016 and throws errors.
