From the little that I know, safety-relevant code might be modeled in a high-level language that generates C. I don't work directly on safety-relevant features

From the little that I know, safety-relevant code might be modeled in a high-level language that generates C.
I don't work directly on safety-relevant features, but I'm sure there are other processes and practices in place.
Some bad news for you though: all automotive companies typically use the same tools and processes. Aviation is also like that. And they use a ton of C and C++.
- sitkack 10y agoWe had our chance and lost it, the DoD was doing great things with Ada. But 1) the compilers sucked 2) they were hard to get ahold of and 3) there wasn't nearly as much training material on how to use Ada well. Then the DoD acquiesced on Ada and permitted embedded dev in C/C++. I am totally fine with a high level tool emitting C. C is a fine portable target. But the high level system should pass some provable rigor.
