//! Build-time error.
//!
//! This crate provides a [const function][const-functions] `build_error`, which will panic in
//! compile-time if executed in [const context][const-context], and will cause a build error
//! if not executed at compile time and the optimizer does not optimise away the call.
//!
//! It is used by `build_assert!` in the kernel crate, allowing checking of
//! conditions that could be checked statically, but could not be enforced in
//! Rust yet (e.g. perform some checks in [const functions][const-functions], but those
//! functions could still be called in the runtime).
//!
//! For details on constant evaluation in Rust, please see the [Reference][const-eval].
//!
