Linking error when building with target-feature=+crt-static

[AngelicosPhosphoros]

This feature makes Visual C++ runtime to be linked output binaries statically. I found a workaround but maybe there is some better way?

I build on Windows with: MS Visual Studio 2019 Vulkan SDK 1.2.162.1 rustc 1.48.0 (7eac88abb 2020-11-16)

Code (build.rs):

use anyhow::*;
use glob::glob;
use std::path::PathBuf;

struct ShaderData {
    src: String,
    src_path: PathBuf,
    spv_path: PathBuf,
    kind: shaderc::ShaderKind,
}

impl ShaderData {
    pub fn load(src_path: PathBuf) -> Result<Self> {
        let extension = src_path
            .extension()
            .context("File has no extension")?
            .to_str()
            .context("Extension cannot be converted to &str")?;
        let kind = match extension {
            "vert" => shaderc::ShaderKind::Vertex,
            "frag" => shaderc::ShaderKind::Fragment,
            "comp" => shaderc::ShaderKind::Compute,
            _ => bail!("Unsupported shader: {}", src_path.display()),
        };

        let src = std::fs::read_to_string(src_path.clone())?;
        let spv_path = src_path.with_extension(format!("{}.spv", extension));

        Ok(Self {
            src,
            src_path,
            spv_path,
            kind,
        })
    }
}

fn main() -> Result<()> {
    // Collect all shaders recursively within /src/
    let mut shader_paths = [
        glob("./src/**/*.vert")?,
        glob("./src/**/*.frag")?,
        glob("./src/**/*.comp")?,
    ];

    let shaders: Result<Vec<_>> = shader_paths
        .iter_mut()
        .flatten()
        .map(|glob_res| -> Result<ShaderData> { ShaderData::load(glob_res?) })
        .collect();
    let shaders = shaders?;
    let mut compiler = shaderc::Compiler::new().context("Unable to create shader compiler")?;

    for shader in shaders {
        println!(
            "cargo:rerun-if-changed={}",
            shader
                .src_path
                .as_os_str()
                .to_str()
                .expect("Failed to get string name for shader")
        );
        let compiled = compiler.compile_into_spirv(
            &shader.src,
            shader.kind,
            shader.src_path.to_str().unwrap(),
            "main",
            None,
        )?;
        std::fs::write(shader.spv_path, compiled.as_binary_u8())?;
    }
    Ok(())
}

Cargo.toml:

[build-dependencies]
anyhow = "1.0"
glob = "0.3"
shaderc = "0.7"

I run build in Powershell with commands:

$env:RUSTFLAGS="-C target-feature=+crt-static"
cargo build

I expect build to compile but got this (this is only a part, a lot of omitted):

I currently use a hack with specifying target explicitely. It makes cargo send custom compiler flags only to the final binary compilations and ignore build scripts:

cargo run --target x86_64-pc-windows-msvc

[guilhermewerner]

Instead of passing the --target to cargo you can put this in your .cargo/config.toml:

[target.x86_64-pc-windows-msvc]
rustflags = ["-C", "target-feature=+crt-static"]

[AngelicosPhosphoros]

@GuilhermeWerner rustflags in config.toml have same effect as setting RUSTFLAGS environment variable so it is unrelated.
