Cargo Features

This crate provides 11 feature flags, 0 enabled by default.

"inspector"

Instrument each widget instance to retain build information.

"dyn_app_extension"

Use dynamic dispatch at the app-extension level.

This speeds-up compilation time at the cost of runtime.

"test_util"

Like cfg(test) but also visible in docs and integration tests.

"multi_app"

Allows multiple app instances per-process.

This feature allows multiple apps, one app per thread at a time. The LocalContext tracks what app is currently running in each thread and app_local! statics switch to the value of each app depending on the current thread.

Not enabled by default, but enabled by feature="test_util".

"trace_widget"

Instrument every widget outer-most node to trace UI methods.

"trace_wgt_item"

Instrument every property and intrinsic node to trace UI methods.

Note that this can cause very large trace files and bad performance.

"crash_handler"

Allow app-process crash handler.

Only enables in not(any(target_arch = "wasm32", target_os = "android", target_os = "ios")) builds.

"trace_recorder"

Enable trace recording.

Note that this does not auto start recording, to do that run with the "ZNG_RECORD_TRACE" env var set.

See zng::app::trace_recorder for more details.

"ipc"

Enables IPC tasks and pre-build views and connecting to views running in another process.

"deadlock_detection"

Spawns a thread on app creation that checks and prints parking_lot deadlocks.

Not enabled by default, but enabled by feature="test_util".

See zng::app::spawn_deadlock_detection for more details.

"memory_profiler"

Enable instrumented allocator and record allocations.

Note that this replaces the #[global_allocator] and has an impact in performance.

See zng::app::memory_profiler for more details.
