About

This is a small example of exporting a C string statically from a C-compatible shared library

The solution is based upon https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33850189/how-to-publish-a-constant-string-in-the-rust-ffi but I feel this is suboptimal.

Run ./build.sh to build.

Problems

• Cannot use const fn because the feature is unstable
• *const c_char does not implement Sync which is needed to have something static
• &[u8].as_ptr() is not a const fn so cannot be used in a static struct initializer
