"This proposal wasn't accepted into the C standard..."
Walter often shows up on HN, so I'll ask: was this proposal merely on the Dr Dobbs article or did it actually go to a committee for review? If the latter, why wasn't it accepted?
Should C reconsider this? Especially now that C++ has std::span<> and std::string_view<>?
- pjmlp 7y agoCurrently Checked C seems to be only attempt left, and a mentality shift to at very least use the static analysis tools that come with the compilers. Contrary to common HN wisdom, most C and C++ related surveys show that only up to 50% actually use some kind of analysis tooling.
