Rust wrapper around freetype 2 library
Initialization
To create a new freetype context, instantiate the Library struct as below. The Library (along with other objects) obeys RAII and is dropped when the struct goes out of scope.
Example
ⓘ
extern crate freetype;
fn main() {
use freetype::Library;
use freetype::face::LoadFlag;
// Init the library
let lib = Library::init().unwrap();
// Load a font face
let face = lib.new_face("/path/to/a/font/file.ttf", 0).unwrap();
// Set the font size
face.set_char_size(40 * 64, 0, 50, 0).unwrap();
// Load a character
face.load_char('A' as usize, LoadFlag::RENDER).unwrap();
// Get the glyph instance
let glyph = face.glyph();
do_something_with_bitmap(glyph.bitmap());
}

folder for more examples.
