For many languages isn't that the FFI to C?
- ComputerGuru 5y agoKind of but not really? That requires considerable effort adapting the target for anything written in a language with first-class object support and is woefully unergonomic.
- cheriot 5y agoAgreed C isn't an ergonomic one. A better one would need manual memory management, though, to avoid running an additional gc. In contrast to the target languages, it would need at least as much type information. I haven't worked with Rust, but I wonder if that will move into this space.
