About:
Corrosion is a CMake-based build system integrator for Rust projects. It automatically generates CMake targets for Rust crates, enabling seamless linking of Rust libraries into C++ applications. This tool simplifies the build process by allowing developers to manage dependencies and build configurations entirely within CMake.

Key Features:

Automatic CMake target generation for Rust crates
Support for both static and dynamic library linking
Seamless integration with existing CMake build systems
Cross-platform compatibility

Use Cases:

Embedding Rust libraries into existing C++ applications
Gradually migrating C++ codebases to Rust
Creating mixed-language projects with unified build configuration

Alternatives:

cxx – Focuses on C++/Rust interop at the API level rather than build system integration
cbindgen – Generates C headers from Rust code but doesn't integrate with CMake build process
