ⓘImportant traits for Stderr

### Important traits for Stderr

`impl Write for Stderr`

    pub fn stderr() -> Stderr

Constructs a new handle to the standard error of the current process.

This handle is not buffered.

### Note: Windows Portability Consideration

When operating in a console, the Windows implementation of this stream does not support non-UTF-8 byte sequences. Attempting to write bytes that are not valid UTF-8 will return an error.

# Examples

Using implicit synchronization:

    use std::io::{self, Write};

    fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
        io::stderr().write_all(b"hello world")?;

        Ok(())
    }Run

Using explicit synchronization:

    use std::io::{self, Write};

    fn main() -> io::Result<()> {
        let stderr = io::stderr();
        let mut handle = stderr.lock();

        handle.write_all(b"hello world")?;

        Ok(())
    }Run

## Search Tricks

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g., `fn:`) to restrict the search to a given type.

Accepted types are: `fn`, `mod`, `struct`, `enum`, `trait`, `type`, `macro`, and `const`.

Search functions by type signature (e.g., `vec -> usize` or `* -> vec`)

Search multiple things at once by splitting your query with comma (e.g., `str,u8` or `String,struct:Vec,test`)
