Rust

When developing in Rust, VSCode expects the project root to be located at the workspace root (e.g., /workspace).

However, this isn't always the case, especially when dealing with complex project structures.

Creating a Workspace Configuration

To handle such scenarios, you can create a Cargo.toml file at /workspace/Cargo.toml with the following content:

[workspace]
resolver = "2"
members = [
  "/workspace/project",
  "/workspace/team/project",
  "hobby",
]

This setup allows you to work with multiple projects simultaneously, even if they are located at varying depths within the workspace.

The members attribute, lists the projects included in the workspace. These can be defined using either relative or absolute paths.

INFO

A Cargo.lock file will be generated alongside the Cargo.toml file. This file contains the checksums of the downloaded dependencies, ensuring consistency across builds.
