| ## Support for defining crate names of Rust dependencies in Rust targets |
| |
| Rust supports defining a different crate name for a dependency than what the |
| actual crate name during compilation of that dependency was. |
| |
| This allows using multiple versions of the same crate at once, or simply using |
| a shorter name of the crate for convenience. |
| |
| ```meson |
| a_dep = dependency('some-very-long-name') |
| |
| my_executable = executable('my-executable', 'src/main.rs', |
| rust_dependency_map : { |
| 'some_very_long_name' : 'a', |
| }, |
| dependencies : [a_dep], |
| ) |
| ``` |
