rust/build.rs

//! This build script ensures that clippy is not compiled with an
//! incompatible version of rust. It will panic with a descriptive
//! error message instead.
//!
//! We specifially want to ensure that clippy is only built with a
//! rustc version that is newer or equal to the one specified in the
//! `min_version.txt` file.
//!
//! `min_version.txt` is in the repo but also in the `.gitignore` to
//! make sure that it is not updated manually by accident. Only CI
//! should update that file.
//!
//! This build script was originally taken from the Rocket web framework:
//! https://github.com/SergioBenitez/Rocket
