rust-encoding failed to compile with rust-msvc_x64 about rust-encoding HOT 4 OPEN

That sounds like a linkage error and not a fault of Encoding. Did you use Cargo with an ordinary dependency or a direct command line to rustc? (AFAIK Cargo does not have MSVC support at the moment, but it might have been changed.)

from rust-encoding.

sorry, I found may be some problem in RustDT.

In command line,with "cargo build", both gnu and msvc cargo can build the project without problem.

But in RustDT, looks like it will mix the gnu's and msvc's rlib, so there are so many linkage errors.

I have the same problem. Build success, but lib fails on tests (or when I use items from lib in code): https://gist.github.com/DenisKolodin/f45760e6d1883fda0652
I've gist cargo test log with verbose flag.

Cargo calls MS linker.

Other crates compiles with MSVC version without similar errors.
With gnu version that tests was passed. Any ideas how can I help to fix it?

JFYI: been playing with this crate, don't see any problem to compile it om msvc compiler
