Problem
While tinkering in Rust, I repeatedly encountered a lot of dead code warnings that made it difficult to focus. I tried using the outer attribute
How do I disable these warnings at the crate level?
#[allow(dead_code)], but it only silences one warning at a time.struct SemanticDirection;
fn main() {}
warning: struct SemanticDirection is never constructed
--> src\main.rs:1:8

Add an
allow as a crate-level attribute; notice the !:#![allow(dead_code)]-
Pass it to
rustc:rustc -A dead_code main.rs
