Return path to produced static library from compile/try_compile

For my education: what can break when switching an API from returning `Result` to `Result`? The return value must be ignored today because it is unit, right? On Tue, Mar...

Allow building multiple targets at once

> Perhaps each call to `build_target` can be collected into a vector? `build_target()` mutates self, so I'd need to copy the config for each. But yeah, you can build multiple...

Allow building multiple targets at once

Ah yes, you are right about the output directory. That makes me hopeful for this issue since it seems doable without a public API change. Internally using a vector seems...

Allow building multiple targets at once

@alexcrichton are you open to PRs for this issue using the vector approach?

Documentation should be available from GitHub pages

+1 would be nice to have easy access from the github homepage :) Thanks for meck by the way!

Add documentation of compile-time width function alternative.

Yeah, I can qualify counting bytes vs bits in the text. Typically the size of integers is specified by bytes, not bits, however. Do you think all instances of the...

Add documentation of compile-time width function alternative.

I just remembered that in the case of `dyn T` we can't use `core::mem::size_of`, so there is definitely a use case for both runtime and compile-time width calculation. I'll do...

Add documentation of compile-time width function alternative.

I mean when dealing with a `PrimInt` trait object, we can't know the size of the type at compile time. For instance, in code dealing with a `Box`, there isn't...

Add more `read_*` methods for big/little endian integers

@oherrala thanks for the crate link. I noticed `untrustended` reads byte by byte, whereas the PR reads all the needed bytes at once, so presumably the performance would be slightly...

Expose a nonconst reference wrapper binding

> In Rust, it's not sound to expose a safe deref from &SharedPtr to &mut T / Pin because the lifetime system is not expressive enough to rule out calling...
