Good news for you: this is a complete misconception. Rust has been stable for a year. With a minor caveat for actual bugs in the language, your code will compile on all Rust 1.X compilers from now until the end of time. Upgrading Rust versions has been a breeze.
- kzrdude 10y agoYou're overstating the stability guarantees. The Rust project has formulated it as “hassle-free upgrades” which seems to imply that small, simple edits may be necessary when upgrading to a new Rust version.
- steveklabnik 10y agoThat's only for changes that are important, though: we don't make unnecessary changes.
- kzrdude 10y agoAgree. It's important to underscore what was promised and what was not. Otherwise you might get the impression that a promise was broken (when it was not).
