you should have read the rest before commenting. This is ideal for embedded targets and C is the best way to write a truly portable library for these small targets. Consider that a lot of embedded code is designed to avoid mallocs() altogether and that helps a lot.
- sp332 10y agoHaving a C binding doesn't mean you have to implement the bulk of the code in C.
- reinar 10y agoFor many embedded systems anything that has 'bindings' is bloatware.
- Florin_Andrei 10y agoHave you ever programmed a microcontroller? (And yes, it would actually be nice to have reliable crypto on a micro-c.)
- dbaupp 10y agoSome platforms only have (bug-ridden, poorly supported) C compilers available: i.e. there's no other language to write in, let alone bind to.
