Since nightly-2024-02-06 , could not compile with --features 'simd-accel' about ripgrep HOT 4 CLOSED

As documented in the README, simd-accel requires a Rust nightly compiler because it relies on unstable features. As also documented in the README, the only thing it helps is UTF-16 decoding. So you might want to re-evaluate why you're enabling it in the first place.

I am considering just removing the simd-accel feature because I am absolutely tired of the fact that encoding_rs refuses to use stable APIs for its SIMD features. All of ripgrep's SIMD optimizations for search do not require it. They use stable but platform specific APIs.

In any case, I'm not tracking this issue here. There's an issue for it at the source: rust-lang/packed_simd#359

from ripgrep.

I ended up just removing simd-accel altogether because I'm tired of dealing with it. See #2749

from ripgrep.

This is more a report and a reference than a real bug, and I will be trying to make a pull request but anything simd-related is way above my knowledge.

Really nice !

Thanks for your time, and for your tools too.
