Is it possible to replace try! with ? about rerast HOT 4 CLOSED

Thanks for the report. I tried your rule exactly as written and it worked for me. Initially however I wasn't getting any matches. After some investigation, it seems that the code that does a sort of local "cargo clean" isn't working any more, so it wasn't attempting to match any code at all. Could you try doing a "cargo clean" before running your rule and see if that helps?

If cargo clean doesn't help, could you supply some code that you think should be matched but isn't?

For background, when you run cargo rerast, it runs "cargo check", but with rerast as the compiler. If cargo thinks everything has already been built/checked, it never calls rerast. So I have a stage that queries cargo to determine bits of the local crate that can be built, then asks cargo to clean those artifacts. That way when it runs cargo check, it'll rerun the "compiler" (rerast) for those targets.

Not sure what might be wrong with it, but I'll have a look this evening.

Oh, and regarding the use of return, yep that's the way to do it. I should probably expand the README to cover this case. Actually, perhaps I should add a new section to the documentation with a larger number of sample rules. You can if you prefer replace the last line of your rule with unreachable!() - that's what I do in my tests that have return types.

Thanks! It turned out it was PEBKAC. I've been testing on cc-rs, where only uses of try! are in a module that is compiled only conditionally, not on my platform.

More examples in the README would be super helpful.

Cool. Glad you tracked it down and thanks for using rerast. I've raised #10 to resolve the issue I mentioned above. I'll also try to have a look at the other issues you raised. Thanks for the reports!
