Types with special support
bool
The rust::Bool type has an operator bool() so you can use this type directly in if statements and ternary expressions. This type
also has a constructor from C++ bool so you can pass true and false to functions that take rust::Bool in input.
literals
In Rust there are many kind of literal expressions, some of them are natively supported in C++, like integer literals. For the rest, Zngur tries to support them using C++ feature called User-defined Literals.
