If you are following the various GCC communication channels, you may know that gccrs will be disabled for the first GCC 13.1 release. If not, surprise :) We wrote a blogpost to dive into the subject and talk about the future of gccrs: rust-gcc.github.io/2023/04/24/gcc… #rustlang #GCC
@gcc_rust Fantastic read. We understand the decision and are still having great fun with GCC-RS. The core backport to GCC13.2 would be HUGE for us on embedded SH for Dreamcast, so we're really excited for that possibility and definitely looking forward to GCC14. Keep up the good work!
@gcc_rust @spendergrsec I honestly hate Rust.. I am a Vuln Researcher so my opinion is not so popular amongst us.. I think we can address memory issues in C/C++ with sanitizers and such as we already are starting to do. The overhead of using Rust is too time consuming, especially for the average dev.
@gcc_rust Great progress nonetheless! I didn't know there's such an effort in the community. Would be amazing to see more frontends for embedded
