That’s why Elixir developers like to make NIF callouts with Rust. It’s dangerous to do anything outside of the BEAM but Rust negates all of those concerns.

- johnisgood 4y agoIs it possible to use Ada instead of Rust?
- brightball 4y agoI believe you can made a NIF with just about anything.
- johnisgood 4y agoI wonder if there are any examples though. Would be helpful. I suppose I could just make Ada bindings.
- Xorlev 4y agoMaybe not all concerns, you're still allocating memory outside of BEAM and you still need to be careful to yield control on longer-running NIFs.
