I am against Rust in NuttX core for the same reasons against Rust in FreeBSD core. These systems are minimalistic Unix, self sufficient, and maintainable. Lets keep things that way.
We had long discussion about that recently on the BSD mailing list: https://lists.freebsd.org/archives/freebsd-hackers/2024-January/002823.html ps/2: All this Rust hype along with enforced changes ideologies seems like well coordinated viral marketing scam it happens wherever you look whether you want it or not and I will not say destructive until I can see independent standalone fully featured OS written only in Rust that will last for at least 5..10 years gaining popularity and user base otherwise its a marxist history rewrite on things that still work. You want Rust in the core go ahead write RustOS have fun maintaining it for 5 years and show us its better :-) -- CeDeROM, SQ7MHZ, http://www.tomek.cedro.info On Wed, Mar 13, 2024, 19:29 Gregory Nutt <spudan...@gmail.com> wrote: > There is some discussion in Issue #11907 proposing to use the Rust > language within the OS (vs Rust applications on a pure C OS).
