This addresses the invalid compile probe testing for a non-longer existing feature by updating it and eyre to use the error_generic_member_access features instead.

The report and errors have all been updated to accomodate this and the new backtrace provide API

Fixes: #84 and #97

I have to pin trybuild as it has added a dependency to toml which only supports >1.70

Well... this is embarassing.

Once again the backtrace test is being finicky, this time due to (I believe) a warning injected by cargo, breaking it all.

I fixed it in #161 and included the fix here.

Will rebase ontop of #161 when that is merged

It turns out there is also RUSTC_WORKSPACE_WRAPPER which should probably be honored as well. Furthermore, the wrapper can be empty and that means "no wrapping".

This is a reasonable template to start with.

It looks like this isn't quite finished. Have you considered working from this PR to fix nightly backtraces?

This looks okay to me to move forward with, sorry for the slowness!

Not your code / out of scope: We're getting a couple dead code errors in this file with DisplayError and NoneError. I'm surprised they're triggered even though we marked them public. Why don't we tag these structs as #[allow(dead_code)]?

I am similarly distressed by the other warnings we get a dozen copies of down below. I thought the missing_doc_code_examples thing was resolved ages ago.

pub in a private module can still be dead code.

pub(crate) is not even public, though.

Yes, I understand that. I guess my surprise is that it's existing code that's had attention paid to its visibility and yet it's dead. I'll find the last time it wasn't dead code and figure its story out.

What was your motivation for rewriting this file?


Backtraces are captured when an error is converted to an `eyre::Report` (such as using `?` or `eyre!`).

If using the nightly toolchain, backtraces will also be captured and accessed from other errors using [error_generic_member_access](https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/pull/2895) if available.

Per #121, some folks will continue to be unhappy about enforcing unstable features whenever we detect nightly. IIRC we discussed a while ago that we want to accomodate that use case. It doesn't make it any worse so I think it's fine to put that work off, but I thought it was worth mentioning.

Yeah, not wanting to break existing behavior in a "fix" PR, but rather make existing up to date nightly a tricky beast when it comes to libraries.
