How do you enable a Rust "crate feature"?
I'm trying to use rand::SmallRng
. The documentation says
This PRNG is feature-gated: to use, you must enable the crate feature
small_rng
.
I've been searching and can't figure out how to enable "crate features". The phrase isn't even used anywhere in the Rust docs. This is the best I could come up with:
[features]
default = ["small_rng"]
But I get:
Feature
default
includessmall_rng
which is neither a dependency nor another feature
Are the docs wrong, or is there something I'm missing?
Specify the dependencies in Cargo.toml like so:
[dependencies]
rand = { version = "0.7.2", features = ["small_rng"] }
Alternatively:
[dependencies.rand]
version = "0.7.2"
features = ["small_rng"]
Both work.
