Comment on Rust is Eating JavaScript
solrize@lemmy.world 5 days agoI’ll probably have to read through it or maybe the Ferrocene standard, but for now, Comprehensive Rust is pretty good. I’ve been busy today but hope to finish it soon. Is it really true as someone mentioned that Rust binaries are always statically linked? That has its attractions but I would hope it’s controllable. Can you use the regular linker (ld) with it?

Rust libraries are statically linked by default yes, except for a couple of rather low level ones (glibc and a couple others I think) - Honestly though I’d be surprised if you come across a situation where it’s something necessary to think about in practice
