Rust 1.72 New Features and Compiler Adjustments
The hosts delve into the new features introduced in Rust version 1.72, focusing on the improvement in reporting potentially useful config-disabled items in errors, aiding users to discern enabled or disabled items due to conditional compilation. They discuss the implications of const evaluation time being unlimited, the removal of limits on the maximum number of statements in const evaluation, and running long compile-time computations using the const feature. The chapter also explores the inclusion of Miri as an interpreter, the shift of Clippy from a separate component to being included with Rust, and the concept of 'denied by default' warnings to ensure smooth upgrades without compilation failures.
