11.2 extern crate

To link a crate to this new library, the extern crate declaration must be used. This will not only link the library, but also import all its items under a module named the same as the library. The visibility rules that apply to modules also apply to libraries.

// executable.rs
// Link to `library`, import items under the `rary` module
extern crate rary;

fn main() {
    rary::public_function();

    // Error! `private_function` is private
    //rary::private_function();

    rary::indirect_access();
}

# The `-L .` argument adds the current directory to the library search path
$ rustc -L . executable.rs && ./executable
called rary's `public_function()`
called rary's `indirect_access()`, that
> called rary's `private_function()`
