Description

The ManifestInfo type deserializes certain sections from Cargo.toml

  • package.metadata.build-package
  • package.metadata.build-kit
  • package.metadata.build-variant

Currently the differences between build-package, build-kit and build-variant is not constrained by an enum. This leads to a lot of "late binding" errors if an expected field is missing. Instead a different type for each of these should be created. For example:

struct BuildPackageInfo { }
struct BuildKitInfo { }
struct BuildVariantInfo { }

enum BuildsysMetadata {
    Package(BuildPackageInfo),
    Kit(BuildKitInfo),
    Variant(BuildVariantInfo),
}

If serde is used correctly with this structure, then missing information will cause an error at deserialization time and get rid of Options and errors downstream when fields are being accessed.


          We should create an issue, if we don't have one already, for deserializing these manifest metadata sections with Serde in a validating manner. We should catch these errors earlier.
