flatc

This is a fork of github.com/chippers/flatc.rs that I am maintaining. All credit to @chippers for the original codebase.

Builds flatbuffers and provides the path to the built flatc. Intended for use by build scripts, but can be useful otherwise if the project is using flatc during runtime.

The flatbuffers version is determined by the build identifier for the crate version. v0.2.0+2.0.0 means the crate is version 0.2.0 and the vendored flatbuffers version is 2.0.0. There's no pressure in releasing crate version 1.0.0 since this is primarily a build tool, so it will come eventually after nothing needs to be fixed/added for a while.

Updating flatbuffers

Updates are done automatically via the release workflow, which is run each day at 12am UTC.
