Compilation error

I am unable to compile the project.

OS: Debian testing rustc: 1.56.0

Error message:

error[E0308]: mismatched types
  --> src/reader.rs:44:9

Hey @CountOmega, I've tried to reproduce this with Debian Testing (bookworm/sid) and Rust 1.56.0 and both the latest master branch as well as the v0.3.0 version compile just fine for me. Can you verify you're using the latest version? Have you maybe modified the source code, maybe by accident?

Yeah it worked with re-cloning and rebuilding, no idea why. Can I contribute for support of .one files exported out of the desktop application?

Strange. But glad you've got it to work 🙂

Can I contribute for support of .one files exported out of the desktop application?

Absolutely! I'm thankful for every contribution!

Can you provide me with some kind of documentation for the .one 2016 file format?

Sure! The main source is in https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/office_file_formats/ms-onestore/ae670cd2-4b38-4b24-82d1-87cfb2cc3725 which describes the Microsoft OneNote Revision Store File Format. Basically this is the container format that OneNote data is stored in. There is also an existing project called LibMsON which implements the OneNote 2016 file format in C++ and helped me understand how OneNote data is structured and arranged (even if the details differ in the OneNote FSSHTTP packaging format).
