Hello...


There is still a problem with C++ and C

About Escher C++ Verifier, read carefully:

"Escher C Verifier enables the development of formally-verifiable 
software in a subset of C (based on MISRA-C 2012)."

Read here:

So it verifies just a "subset" of C, so that's not good for C++
because for other applications that are not a subset of C , it can
not do for example Run-time checks, so we are again into
this problem again, so read the following carefully:

I think that Delphi and FreePascal like ADA come with range checking and 
Run-time checks that catch conversion from negative signed to unsigned , 
and catch out-of-bounds indices of dynamic and static arrays and catch 
arithmetic overflow etc. and you can also dynamically catch this 
exception of ERangeError etc.

But C++ and C don't have range checking etc. so that's not good in C++ 
and C because it is not good for safety-critical systems.

You can carefully read the following, it is very important:
