In many cases, new releases of a dependency can break compatibility with Tower's minimum supported Rust version (MSRV). It shouldn't be necessary for Tower to bump its MSRV when a dependency does, as users on older Rust versions should be able to depend on older versions of that crate. Instead, we should probably just run our MSRV checks with minimal dependency versions. This branch changes Tower's CI jobs to do that. It was also necessary to make some changes to the `Cargo.toml` to actually fix the build with minimal dependency versions. Signed-off-by: Eliza Weisman <eliza@buoyant.io>
Tower
Tower is a library of modular and reusable components for building robust networking clients and servers.
Overview
Tower aims to make it as easy as possible to build robust networking clients and servers. It is protocol agnostic, but is designed around a request / response pattern. If your protocol is entirely stream based, Tower may not be a good fit.
Supported Rust Versions
Tower will keep a rolling MSRV (minimum supported Rust version) policy of at least 6 months. When increasing the MSRV, the new Rust version must have been released at least six months ago. The current MSRV is 1.49.0.
