Re: [rust-dev] Emscripten for Rust?
Just wait until they write RustMonkey for Servo, then you can run your Emscriptened C++ inside of that On Sun, Jan 5, 2014 at 6:11 PM, Greg wrote: > I'd happy chip in for a Kickstarter-type project to automatically convert > C/C++ to Rust. > > Anything like this exists or anyone planning on making this type of > announcement? > > - Greg > > -- > Please do not email me anything that you are not comfortable also sharing with > the NSA. > > > ___ > Rust-dev mailing list > Rust-dev@mozilla.org > https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev > > -- Tony Arcieri ___ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
Re: [rust-dev] Emscripten for Rust?
It would provide a nice migration path. And a way to guarantee that your nice Rust program had some terrible unsupported legacy C for the next decade or two. ;D Kevin On Sun, Jan 5, 2014 at 6:28 PM, Corey Richardson wrote: > Much of it would be.

Much of it would be. But why?

On first glance it seems like C -> Rust would be very feasible via a lot of `unsafe`, * and *mut.

Re: [rust-dev] Emscripten for Rust?
I'm not sure if this is generally feasible! If memory-unsafe C/C++ code could be automatically and mechanically converted to memory-safe Rust code, then that would imply the existence of static analysis tools for C/C++ code that could themselves guarantee memory safety without requiring Rust at all.

Re: [rust-dev] Emscripten for Rust?
Any such conversion is going to be lossy enough as to be worthless. It's only acceptable for emscripten because the web platform can't run native code. But any use of Rust is already going to be targetting something that can run C.
