Overview of Rust:
Rust is a general-purpose programming language that spans both high level and low level. The benefit of using rust, in general, is that it is a much safer programming language compared to others; Rust checks for all memory accesses so it is impossible to corrupt the memory, meaning that if the program compiles successfully, then it is very unlikely for the program to contain any blindspots for errors.
Rust With FreeRTOS:
Rust interface for the FreeRTOS embedded operating system requires beta Rust, which is one of the release channels for Rust releases.
Overview of C++:
Many people know C++ since it is essentially an extension of the C language. C++ compromises a combination of both high-level and low-level language features.
C++ With FreeRTOS:
In general, FreeRTOS can work with or work alongside a C++ embedded application. All of the FreeRTOS headers are wrapped in extern "C" {}
blocks to ensure correct linkage in a C++ application. Therefore, it is quite easy to get FreeRTOS to work with C++.
