How to embed resources in Rust executable?

Question

This is the cousin of this question over here asking the same thing for C.

Basically, is there a better way than to just turn it into a giant byte array and putting it in a source file?

Alternatively, does a macro have the ability to do this? (Rust Macros... are a dense looking and their exact capabilities are not known to me.)

Answer 1

You probably want include_bytes!.

If you are in older versions of Rust, use include_bin! instead.
