Suppress Warnings Using RUSTFLAGS
Before cargo officially supports an option to disable warnings,
you can use the environment variable RUSTFLAGS to disable warnings during compiling.
RUSTFLAGS=-Awarnings cargo build
RUSTFLAGS=-Awarnings cargo build --release
RUSTFLAGS=-Awarnings cargo test
RUSTFLAGS=-Awarnings cargo test --release
A better way is to use the command cargo rustc
(instead of cargo build)
which allows users to pass compiler flags to it.
cargo rustc --lib -- -Awarnings
