I downloaded the github repository iotaledger/iota.rs to my PC and run
cargo run --example address
according to the instructions on the IOTA Client Library website and the following error occured :
The error refers to this line of code:
let seed = Seed::from_bytes(&hex::decode(env::var("NONSECURE_USE_OF_DEVELOPMENT_SEED_1").unwrap()).unwrap());
I also tried to manipulate the code a little bit to resolve the error with replacing
NONSECURE_USE_OF_DEVELOPMENT_SEED_1
with the actual seed value defined in .env.example
256a818b2aac458941f7274985a410e57fb750f3a3a67969ece5bd9ae7eef5b2
which successfully compiled, but when I run the .exe the same error occurs:
thread 'main' panicked at 'called `Result::unwrap()` on an `Err` value: NotPresent', examples\address.rs:26:94
note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
I am new to Rust (started few days ago because of IOTA) so maybe there is a lack of basic Rust understanding. What also confuses me a little bit is the .env.example file. How is the .env.example file linked to the adress.rs file?
Can someone please help me to resolve the error?

.env.examplefile to.env. Some Rust programs read an.envfile at startup to populate environment variables... – mihi Mar 08 '21 at 20:09
