Import modules in local crates

help
1

I'm trying to understand how to import modules. Rust By Example only covers the most common cases, and is not clear what to do in other cases - or if other cases are the results of bad design.

So, my questions are:

  • How do I import src/common/b.rs into src/common/a.rs?
  • Is it a bad idea to do so?
  • How do I import src/hello/hello.rs into src/world/world.rs?
  • Is it a bad idea to do so?

/src/common/mod.rs

mod a;
mod b;

/src/common/a.rs

use super::b; // relative import
use crate::common::b; // absolute import

use crate::hello::hello;

And no, neither are a bad idea.
