This appears to be caused by this https://github.com/tokio-rs/tokio/blame/master/tokio/src/lib.rs#L536-L541

[flosse]

... so it's not related to tokio-modbus, right?

[ShayBox]

This is related to tokio-modbus, the error comes from it trying to access the runtime tokio module without the cfg_rt! (I don't know what that macro expands to, likely a cfg feature flag?)

[flosse]

hm... I tried to compile some examples and could not reproduce this error. Could you provide some more info to reproduce it?

    Ok(())
}

It appears to be because of default-features = false, it's been a while since I touched my project and I just updated it, but this comment implies it's still an intended use-case, probably one of the optional dependencies from a different feature is explicitly required.

[flosse]

I'm so sorry, I'm still not able to produce the error, even if I disable the default features 🤔
This is what works fine on my machine:

cargo check --no-default-features --features rtu-sync --example rtu-client-sync

[ShayBox]

Yes that command works if I clone tokio-modbus and run it within, this only happens in a new project with tokio-modbus as a dependency

[ShayBox]

Here's my test project if you like, it's just the above two files Test.zip
$ cargo build

[flosse]

I see...you're right!

[flosse]

Could you check if #192 solves the problem?

[ShayBox]

That does fix it 👍
