The IDE support for Rust in Android relies on rust-analyzer.
rust-analyzer is a language server protocol
used by your IDE to understand the code structure and to provide features
such as code completion or jump-to definition. Before you start, search the
rust-analyzer QuickStart documentation for how to configure your
IDE or editor to use the rust-analyzer protocol.
Android provides the configuration that enables rust-analyzer to understand
how Android Rust modules are built. This is described in the Soong-generated file
rust-project.json. For some IDEs such as Visual Studio Code, this file is
generated by aidegen,
using the -l r option arguments (to select Rust as the language). If you use
a different IDE, manually generate a rust-project.json file with the following code:
// Generates rust-project.json in out/soong/
SOONG_GEN_RUST_PROJECT=1 m nothing
// Creates a symbolic link
ln -s $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP/out/soong/rust-project.json $ANDROID_BUILD_TOP
A prebuilt, stable version of rust-analyzer is available in-tree at
prebuilts/rust/linux-x86/stable/rust-analyzer.
