#124986 - Things for which an HLL cannot be trusted...
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Jan Waclawek said:
Well, if you dare to use a HLL in timing-critical real-time application... bear the consequences.

Yes - that was my point:
I said:
Then, of course, there's the just plain bad 'C' code that makes unwarranted assumptions and unsafe reliance on the nature of the generated code...

I'm saying that if your source code relies upon the execution timing of the generated code then it is bad source code.

Such reliance may or may not be intentional...
