[gobo-eiffel-develop] Questions about gec and gedoc

[Philippe K <phi...@gm...>]

Hello,

I have some questions about the current state of gec, for the purpose of
use in an embedded context (micro controller) with a Real Time OS :

1) How big is the gec runtime (code size and memory size) (without Boehm
gc) ? Although this may vary from one environment to another, the data can
be provided for a standard environment say Ubuntu with gcc or Windows with
Microsoft C compiler. For example what are the sizes for a single class
"Hello world" application ?

2) Are threads implemented using the POSIX standard pthreads ?

3) Has anyone experimented with porting an eiffel application, compiled
with Gobo, to an RTOS that is POSIX pthreads compliant (i.e. : FreeRTOS) ?

4) Are there any plans for SCOOP to be implemented in Gobo (although not
included in the current ECMA standard)? Will it be designed with the
possibility of use with certain RTOSes such as FreeRTOS ?

5) Assertions are currently not checked in gec. Is there a plan to make it
available?

And about gedoc: is it able to generate graphviz script generation in order
to produce automatically a BON class diagram ? (and to overcome the display
issue of client double arrow )

Thanks.
Best regards.

Philippe.
