When I learned C a bit, I was looking up how people did C++-like stuff in C. I found objects, exceptions, concurrency, etc. If mrustc is written in C++, could it be easier to use such C++-like primitives to port its working C++ to C? And do it a bit at a time using strong interoperability between C++ and C? Before anyone says it, I know that would be a hard, porting effort with many pitfalls. Remember we’re comparing that to writing a Rust compiler in C, though. It might be easier to port the C++ to C. This also reminds me of the C++ to C compilers that used to exist. I don’t know if they’re still around. I think both Rust to C/C++ and C++ to human-readable C compilers would be useful today. Especially to combine the safety benefits of one with the tooling of the other.
