Pretty interesting, but what’s the reason of being for Fil-C?
- nick__m 5mo agoMemory safety for existing C and C++ codebase.
- pjmlp 5mo agoEspecially in systems where CHERI, MTE, ADI and similar harware isn't available.
- carry_bit 5mo agoThere's a whole lot of C and C++ software out there, and Fil-C makes it memory safe, frequently with minimal work.
- connicpu 5mo agoCan't speak to how everyone else is using it but at my job we run all of our unit tests under Fil-C as part of CI, in addition to the UBASAN, TSAN, and Valgrind pipelines we already had for them.
