Static DEAD_CODE_PUB_IN_BINARY 

pub static DEAD_CODE_PUB_IN_BINARY: &'static Lint

The dead_code_pub_in_binary lint detects unused pub items in executable crates.

Example

#![deny(dead_code_pub_in_binary)]

pub fn unused_pub_fn() {}

fn main() {}

{{produces}}

Explanation

In executable crates, pub items are often implementation details rather than part of an external API. This lint helps find those items when they are never used.

This lint only applies to executable crates. In library crates, public items are considered part of the crate’s API and are not reported by this lint.
