Jeremy Drake 1f862a82e2 make shared_helpers exe function work for both cygwin and non-cygwin hosts
On Cygwin, it needs to not append .exe, because /proc/self/exe (and
therefore std::env::current_exe) does not include the .exe extension,
breaking bootstrap's rustc wrapper.  On hosts other than Cygwin, it
*does* need to append .exe because the file really does have a .exe
extension, and non-Cygwin hosts won't be doing the same filename
rewriting that Cygwin does when looking for a file X but finding only
X.exe in its place.

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.

Why Rust?

  • Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrated with other languages.

  • Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.

  • Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
