G'day all. Quoting Tom Hawkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Actually, Haskell is an excellent language for hard real-time applications. At Eaton we're using it for automotive powertrain control. Of course, the RTS is not running in the loop. Instead, we write in a DSL, which generates C code for our vehicle ECU.
Bingo! And thanks for someone for admitting that they do this. :-) "Hard real-time applications" is a huge area, and not all of the code that you write is code that ends up running on the target. Generally, in DSL/MDD-style development, not very much of the code that you write ends up running on the target. In some cases, _none_ of the code you write ends up running on the target. Haskell is almost ideal for tasks like this.
