In the
Display
implementation ofSymbol
the potential error after demangling is turned into astd::fmt::Error
.I’d like to propose to not do that, as this will lead to panics in many cases (even just a simple
format!("{my_symbol}")
. This PR changes theDisplay::fmt
implementation to output"<Demangling failed>"
in case where the demanging failed, avoiding the panic scenario.
