This crate provides a [const function][const-functions] `build_error`, which will panic in 6 //! compile-time if executed in [const context][const-context], and will cause a build error 7 //! if not executed at compile time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call. 8 //! 9 //! It is used by `build_assert!` in the kernel crate, allowing checking of 10 //! conditions that could be checked statically, but could not be enforced in 11 //! Rust yet (e.g. perform some checks in [const functions][const-functions], but those 12 //! functions could still be called in the runtime). 13 //! 14 //!
