Worth keeping android/interoperability/cpp.html and chromium/interoperability-with-cpp.html in sync? #1523

Great that you're on top of this! I agree that there will be
I've been thinking of pulling all of the "Interoperate with X" slides out of the Android section and putting them into their own top-level place for a while. They're a bit out of place there, honestly. Now, the question is how we can do this? I don't like duplicating the slides, but I think this approach could work:
I think this could work reasonably well — it will be like those Choose Your Own Adventure books I remember from when I was a child 😄 An important advantage of this is that the The Android/Chromium slide could have the part about build rules before after the link to the generic CXX slides. /cc @randomPoison and @fw-immunant |
We could consider putting that after the |
Hi @anforowicz, would you be able to do the merge of the slides? I've noticed that I often end up on the wrong slide when I search for "cxx" — that is, I end up on, say, Limitations of CXX instead of With C++ which covers CXX in detail. The detailed coverage was added in #1392 by @randomPoison and I think it would be helpful to combine this. As Dustin suggests, it would fit nicely into the Unsafe Rust section. The Android and Chromium classes could then just link to this section — we don't have to go linearly through the large book when teaching a class :-) |
I'll try to take a look, but it may take me a while to get here. |
That is totally fine, as long as it's someones radar 😄 Thanks! |
Android-specific and Chromium-specific parts of the course both talk about using https://cxx.rs for C++/Rust interop. Is it worth it to somehow unify some of the content?
In particular, both introductory slides (at android/interoperability/cpp.html and chromium/interoperability-with-cpp.html) have a diagram of how
cxx
works, but Chromium also has additional speaker notes where it lists some benefits (over manually authoring the bindings).PS. Some of the content will need to remain Android-specific and/or Chromium-specific:
