## Build configuration
### Cargo feature resolution in workspaces
A new [version](https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/resolver.html#resolver-versions) of Cargo's feature resolver was introduced for the 2021 edition of Rust.
For single crate projects it will select a resolver version based on the Rust edition in `Cargo.toml`. As there is no Rust edition present for `Cargo.toml` in a workspace, Cargo will default to the pre 2021 edition resolver.
This can cause issues resulting in non WASM compatabile code being built for a WASM target. Seeing `mio` failing to build is often a sign that none WASM compatible code is being included in the build.
The resolver version can be set in the workspace `Cargo.toml` to remedy this issue.
```toml
[workspace]
members = ["member1", "member2"]
resolver = "2"
```
