Describe your issue

Cross doesn't consider the workspace path when mounting path dependencies, only looking at the crate path. Cross should instead look for the workspace root of the crate.

What target(s) are you cross-compiling for?

No response

Which operating system is the host (e.g computer cross is on) running?

• macOS
• Windows
• Linux / BSD
• other OS (specify in description)

What architecture is the host?

• x86_64 / AMD64
• arm32
• arm64 (including Mac M1)

What container engine is cross using?

• docker
• podman
• other container engine (specify in description)

cross version

cross 0.2.5 (4090bec 2024-10-15)

Example

cargo add --path <path_to_other_worksace_member>
cross build

To solve this, we need to resolve if the crate is in a workspace, and then get the workspace root here https://github.com/cross-rs/cross/blob/main/src/cargo.rs#L89-L92

[Emilgardis]

I'm not sure this is actually possible :/ I can't see anyway to relate a path dependency to it's workspace root (if it has one).

Is there any work around for this?

[Emilgardis]

Yes, manually specify the path and use it as a env.volumes. see https://github.com/cross-rs/cross/blob/main/docs/config_file.md#buildenv
