C and Latin | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
similarities between English and C | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
all sorts of similarities | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
NOT engineers..... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I think that was his point? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I know | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I also don't know if his diagram on Page 3 is right | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
fewer ASM developers | | 01/01/70 00:00 |

Wait a minute, pilgrim! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
pilgrim has arrived | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Break out that DOS Computer | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I do that quite often! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
blame drivers | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Equip them right and they seem to work ... sort-of | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Engineers and Marketing guys | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
jeeziz x kryst | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
So ... Why do you do all that? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
wrong choice of word | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It's just a millstone ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
re: why? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
My computer _boots_ faster than that. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
DMA? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Maybe it's the amount of memory | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
The cost of mutlitasking.. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
haven't any time to waste | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
That would be too slow! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I see no ships! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Isn't 4k plenty for a '51? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
which '51 does have that? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Erik would call those "deviates". | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
nope | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
pipelines, cars, and real engineers | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It's also pipelined. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
then it's irrelevant | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
If you can ignore those features | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
keeping up | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I feel your pain ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Don't see problems - see possibilities | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Do you really want to hide from reality? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Always hiding behind excuses | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
What excuses? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Your excuses | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Do you directly or indirectly work for Keil? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
BULL!! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I don't harbor any animosity, but I don't like being lied-to | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
you "understand well enough" | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I have to agree ... evaluation takes time ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
this is where I think I'm the realist | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
If only the pieces were separately available ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I can't and would never | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
So ... Who's a simulator specialist? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
don't know, don't care | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
So why even mention it? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
because someone (you?) brought it up | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Tangential Richard at work | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
the pot calling the kettle black | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
that's the crux | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It's a matter of realism | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
well, if you do not have the time to evaluate, your points | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I have to disagree ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
no need | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
That would be an ideal fix! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
no way | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
but only if we both define a project | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
oh, that's no proof then... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It would be a nice idea, but how would you time it? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
you did not read what I said | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
implication and how to challenge it | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
disassembly | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Encryption module? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
not at all | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It's clear to see that some folks really like 'C' | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
can you only like one thing? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Yes, but ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
you can boil steak too | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
but you don't have to do that | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
but you just said | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
no praise, just not hate | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
That makes sense | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
not that claim | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
again you miss 'usually', 'mostly', 'often', etc | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Not so ... exactly | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Based on what experience? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
That's not how it works | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
maintenance is a totally different issue | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
apples to pears? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I don't need to compare/contrast apples and pears | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
The embedded world is larger than your tiny island | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
IF | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
It's all about initial hardware cost, not maintenance cost. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Value of investment | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Not Here | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Whose business? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
What do you mean by "code analysis tools"? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Some important tests | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Yes, those come up in HLL, but ... | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Memory leaks nothing to do with HLL | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Yeah, you can do that ... but it's not recommended | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
More way than one to create memory leaks | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
that is not applicable to small embedded | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Way easier to analyse non-goto code | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
and why would that be? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
General purpose languages normally allows dangers | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
You still don't get the point, Per | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Wrong question | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
what view? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
and the answer is | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
can be seen as a leading question | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Careful now! Some folks like Pascal for the '51 | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Why? | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Some things depend on your point of view | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Richard has never, ever, in his whole life implemented a bug | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I may have written 'em, but I've never shipped 'em | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
QAC and Polyspace | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
thanks, Oliver | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
MISRA and assembly don't mix well. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
you can write FORTRAN in any language | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
I know ... but MISRA rules are explicit. | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Not happy will all parts of MISRA | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Interesting discussion of MISRA C: | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Flawed but useful | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Nested comments can produce different results | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
That's the thing with rules | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Polyspace | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Also in VB | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
Amazing! | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
You really are very naughty Andy | | 01/01/70 00:00 |
