Struct hotlib::Build

pub struct Build<'a> { /* fields omitted */ }

The result of building a package’s dynamic library.

This can be used to load the dynamic library either in place or via a temporary file as to allow for re-building the package while using the library.

Implementations

impl<'a> Build<'a>

pub fn cargo_output(&self) -> &Output

The output of the cargo process.

pub fn timestamp(&self) -> SystemTime

The moment at which the build was completed.

pub fn dylib_path(&self) -> PathBuf

The path to the generated dylib target.

pub fn tmp_dylib_path(&self) -> PathBuf

The path to the temporary dynamic library clone that will be created upon load.

pub fn load(self) -> Result<TempLibrary, LoadError>

Copy the library to the platform’s temporary directory and load it from there.

Note that the copied dynamic library will be removed on Drop.

pub fn load_in_place(self) -> Result<Library, Error>

Load the library from it’s existing location.

Note that if you do this, you will have to ensure the returned Library is dropped before attempting to re-build the library.
