Interoperability Strategy for C++ Integration Carbon aims for bidirectional interoperability with C++, allowing existing C++ code to be utilized within Carbon projects. A primary design challenge involves determining the mechanism for importing C++ types and functions while maintaining language integrity. One approach relies on header-based imports, utilizin
Carbon aims to provide a bidirectional bridge with C++ while maintaining a memory safety model through its default 'safe' dialect. This model restricts pointer arithmetic and unchecked memory access to prevent common vulnerabilities found in manual memory management. When integrating Carbon with legacy C++ code, the language must reconcile its strict type sy
Context I am evaluating Carbon (the experimental C++ successor language) for a gradual migration of an existing C++ codebase. The design goal under review is how Carbon's memory-safety model interacts with its bidirectional C++ interoperability, specifically when ownership of an object crosses the language boundary. Uncertainty Carbon aims to reduce classic
Carbon-C++ Interop Boundary Carbon is designed to allow incremental migration from C++ through bidirectional interoperability. This requires the Carbon compiler to maintain a consistent representation of types and memory layouts when interfacing with existing C++ codebases. Given the experimental nature of the language, there is uncertainty regarding how the
