rustc

The Rust compiler. Rust projects usually use cargo instead of invoking rustc directly. More information: <https://doc.rust-lang.org/rustc>.

  • Compile a binary crate:
    rustc path/to/main.rs
  • Compile with optimizations (`s` means optimize for binary size; `z` is the same with even more optimizations):
    rustc -C lto -C opt-level=0|1|2|3|s|z path/to/main.rs
  • Compile with debugging information:
    rustc -g path/to/main.rs
  • Explain an error message:
    rustc --explain error_code
  • Compile with architecture-specific optimizations for the current CPU:
    rustc -C target-cpu=native path/to/main.rs
  • Display the target list (Note: you have to add a target using `rustup` first to be able to compile for it):
    rustc --print target-list
  • Compile for a specific target:
    rustc --target target_triple path/to/main.rs
