Understand it, then run it
The Rust project decided to rename the file that lists its long‑term goals. The file was previously called something else and the new name better reflects its purpose. This change is only in the documentation; it does not affect any Rust code you write. The rename will appear in the next release of the RFC collection, but you can still read the goals in the current version.
Run it now
// This program demonstrates the effect of the rename project goal RFC.
// The change is not yet shipped, so we simply print a message indicating
// that the project goals file has been renamed.
fn main() {
println!("Project goals file has been renamed.");
}
What it printed when we ran it on Rust 1.98.1 (edition 2024)
Project goals file has been renamed.
Run sends this program (for Solidity, the contract and its tests) to our own sandbox, where it is compiled and run once, with no network, and what it printed or the test report comes back here. Nothing is kept. Runs are counted per visitor for the day so everyone gets a turn; the details are on the legal page.
