The fundamental measure of any compiler is its ability to generate high-quality, functionally correct, executable code. But equally important is its ability to generate valid, well annotated, error messages when the source code it parses is poorly constructed. Invalid...
As the saying goes, ‘a chain is only as strong as its weakest link’, and it’s as true in software development as it is in any other walk of life. A lot happens between source code and your target processor, so making sure your C or C++ toolchain remains strong means...
Writing code for your safety-critical application requires a great deal of care and attention. But above all it requires highly effective verification. That not only applies to the code you write. It also applies to any standard libraries you use, because standard...
In this blog, we promote the joint webinar we are running with BUGSENG. The webinar topic is: “Language Subsetting and Compiler Qualification in the Development of Software for Safety-Critical Systems”. It will run on Thursday, 17 September at 11:00-12:00 CEST...
Writing code is hard. Reimplementing common tasks is prone to error. That’s why software developers rely heavily on the functions in the standard library. It makes the job easier for developers, and the generated code more reliable. But are you aware that compilers...
The standard library is a fundamental part of most embedded systems and their software; embedded systems would not run without it. However, functions in the standard library are usually taken for granted and are not tested properly. The C and C++ language standards...
