## Different panic strategies

The `cfg_panic` feature makes it possible to exercise different lines of code depending on the panic strategy.
The possible value is either `unwind` or `abort`.

Should this say make clear that code compiled with #[cfg(panic = "unwind")] being true may still aborting on panic if any crate is compiled with -Cpanic=abort?

This is a good thing to point out. Note, I'm not as familiar with crates so i don't know too much about this but I'll take your word for it.

I updated the file, let me know what you think :)

Thanks for the PR! I think this might need to go in a different direction, though. The cfg options are documented in the Conditional Compilation chapter. I would expect this to just add a new section similar to target_pointer_width. Also, I wouldn't bother with an example, since that chapter already has some examples.

Hi, just following up. How would you like to proceed on this PR? Should I adjust it or would you like to not include it? The issue is still open pending this thread.

Just FYI, the compiler changes will be accepted to version 1.60, the Rust by Example documentation was merged in, and the Rust Book chose not to include it.

Can you update the PR to instead add a section in the Conditional Compilation chapter? There are several sections there with examples of how cfg values are documented, and you can follow that format for adding cfg_panic. Thanks!

OK. I added an example to the Conditional Compilation chapter and removed the additional text from the Attributes-Testing section. Let me know what you think.

Sorry if I wasn't clear. The documentation should look like the other sections in the conditional compilation chapter. For example, there should be a section (probably just under the proc_macro one) that looks roughly like this:


panic

Key-value option set for …

Example values:

  • "abort"
  • "unwind"

Also, the example using #[cfg(not(panic="unwind"))] is using a form that is assuming there are only two panic strategies. There is a note here where it was stated that we should explicitly avoid that. I think the text here should very briefly note that other values may be added in the future.

Ah, OK. I added the suggested section. Thank you for the feedback.
