The idea is to keep it in C++ and do new development in an hypothetical Safe C++. That would ideally be significantly simpler than interface with rust or rewrite.
There is of course the "small" matter that Safe C++ doesn't exist yet, but Google analysis showing that requiring only new code to be safe is good enough, is a strong reason for developing a Safe C++.
- steveklabnik 2y agoSafe C++ does exist today: it’s implemented in Circle. You can try it out on godbolt right now.
- gpderetta 2y agoThanks! I have been putting off playing with rust lifetimes. I guess now I have no excuses.
