Question about dependency of dependency

help

Hello,

I would like to know how can I use a dependency of a dependency without declaring it in Cargo.toml? Is it possible?

Thanks.

If the dependency exports it's dependency, you will be able to use it without importing it.
For example, If a dependency crate uses tokio and exports it by:

pub use tokio;

You will be able to use it by using use dependency::tokio;.

Yes, that works. So it's like module, it needs to be exported otherwise it's private. Is that right?
