Thanks! RTFM-core embeds C code, and is as such not particularly safe. However, as an experiment an object (component like) abstraction RTFM-cOOre was drafted (along with a prototype implementation). The cOOre language "could" be safe (just using rtfm-core/C as an intermediate representation). But developing and "selling" a new language requires huge amount effort and resources. Many of the sought features for the cOOre language are already in place with Rust (just that the concurrency model was not there). So that is where it all started, RTFM for Rust, is at present just a subset of the rtfm-core language, but extensions towards timing semantics and object orientation are already in the making. Disclaimer: Myself being fairly new to Rust, so all the Rust type system wizardry is due Mr. Japaric. /Per
