Nice! This is something I have been looking at my self a couple of times.
Seems like the malloced crate have not been updated in 11 months. mbox have not been updated in 3 years.
I wonder what other options are out there. I would like to see a library that gets maintained and could provide the functionality that we have implemented here. Which is basically from FFI to owned with a possibility of adding a cleanup function.
The last commit and release of malloced
was just under 1 year ago. As there are no outstanding issues, there is no evidence the crate is unmaintained. Unfortunately mbox
has a couple of potential soundness issues and the author is unresponsive. Perhaps malloced
could be considered as a short-term alternative, leaving open the possibility later for a crate that supports cleanup natively.
Yes, I would rather like a dependency that has no known issues and was updated recently
then have a dependency to something that seams abandoned and with a maintainer that does not seem unresponsive. Maybe it would even be possible to add feature request to the malloced crate.
I'm definitely for this move, seems like a great alternative for MBox
Could you please rebase this on the latest changes from main?
