Requirements & limits

Use the Rust crate through Cargo, or build the separate C API wrapper with Cargo. A mostly equivalent native C implementation is available but described as less supported.
The library operates on supplied symbol strings and does not recover stripped identifiers. It offers a choice of MIT or Apache-2.0 licensing and does not require allocation or OS support.
