# `static_include_bytes!` Macro
[](https://crates.io/crates/static-include-bytes)
[](https://docs.rs/static-include-bytes)
Like the built-in `include_bytes!` macro, but produces a static array definition.
## Example
```rust
use static_include_bytes::static_include_bytes;
static_include_bytes!(#[no_mangle] TEN_BYTES = concat!(env!("CARGO_MANIFEST_DIR"), "/ten_bytes.bin"));
assert_eq!(TEN_BYTES.len(), 10);
assert_eq!(&TEN_BYTES, b"0123456789");
```
The macro invocation is equivalent to `static TEN_BYTES: [u8; _] = include_bytes!(...);`, but as of 2023-08-18, you cannot write this directly due to <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/85077> .
