Hmm. I wonder if it might be too close. That is to say, close enough that people think "I'd rather have this implemented as a static checking flag in my C compiler and a few libraries" - and promptly forget it because they have filed it under "feature request" along with the zillion other things they want from a compiler.
The Go designers felt compelled not just to explain why their language is good, but why it ought to have a separate existence and not be implemented as an add-on to C/C++.
- stcredzero 17y agoclose enough that people think "I'd rather have this implemented as a static checking flag in my C compiler and a few libraries" - and promptly forget it Cyclone seems to go a bit beyond that. I'd have more confidence in this as a basis for writing a highly secure kernel than just "a static checking flag in my C compiler and a few libraries."
