  • This is true from the perspective of the language, but from an implemention perspective the difference is actually that alloc and proc_macro are loaded from the 'sysroot'. The difference is that arbitrary crates can be in the sysroot - for example, if you use #![feature(rustc_private)], you can actually load the compiler's own crates as libraries: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/3aa325221041bc4aba3ffc637b7a2cd475617aad/src/librustdoc/lib.rs#L27

  • gopenpgp

  • Hi! Can somebody help me with ring? My goal is super simple: I want to encrypt/decrypt a byte sequence using a password. The problem is that I don't really know the theory. In Go I just used gopenpgp library by ProtonMail. It is really high-level and provides a function with just two parameters: text and password. But there is no such library in Rust, so I decided to use ring.
