Thank you for this perspective, it's one I'll try to incorporate more of in a future revision.
While the content aims to be generally applicable to a broad range of software, further contextualization against a specific standard like DO-178C might make for a valuable appendix section.
There's a bit of a balancing act, however, since Rust is, at present, not a certified choice for such use cases.
- zppln 5y agoWell, in my experience it is possible to claim Level A despite not using a certified compiler. Perhaps not if you're building a civilian airliner and you're probably still gonna have to do some kind of activities to show what goes into the compiler comes out as expected. So although certification may be an ultimate goal, I don't think I'd consider it to be a complete showstopper when it comes to getting Rust airborne and keeping whatever it executes on so. :)
