* docs: explicitly list env vars checked by temp_dir on Windows On Windows, temp_dir() internally calls GetTempPath2/GetTempPath which checks TMP, TEMP, USERPROFILE environment variables in order. This information was previously only available by following links to Microsoft docs. Making it explicit in Rust's own documentation improves discoverability. Addresses #125439. * docs: note env var influence on temp_dir and env_clear on Windows On Windows, nv::temp_dir() internally calls GetTempPath2/GetTempPath, which checks TMP, TEMP, and USERPROFILE in order. Document this lookup order directly in the emp_dir docs rather than requiring users to follow the link to Microsoft documentation. Also add a note on Command::env_clear explaining that clearing the environment affects the child process's emp_dir(), not the parent's. Closes #125439. * docs: drop Windows env_clear temp_dir note
This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
