Description
Code generated by flatbuffers' compiler is unsafe but not marked as such.
See https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/issues/6627 for details.
All users that use generated code by flatbuffers compiler are recommended to:
- not expose flatbuffer generated code as part of their public APIs
- audit their code and look for any usage of
follow, push, or any method that uses them
(e.g. self_follow).
- Carefuly go through the crates' documentation to understand which "safe" APIs are not
intended to be used.
