Cross compiling error

help
#1

Is there an official tutorial for cross compiling for Rust? I've found a few articles or github repo online but trying to check any "official" guides first.

One particular problem I encountered is: I specified the following in <project>/.cargo/config.toml ,

[target.armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf]
linker = "arm-none-linux-gnueabihf-gcc"

but when I ran

cargo build --target armv7-unknown-linux-gnueabihf --release

it tries to call arm-linux-gnueabihf-gcc instead (when building crate ring). How can make sure cargo calls arm-none-linux-gnueabihf-gcc ?

Thanks.

You can specify the linker Rust uses using that configuration file. For specifying the compiler/linker that's used when compiling C, refer to the build scripts of the specific crates doing so.
