While the generated SPARK code is already architecture independent there are still platforms that don't have an Ada compiler at all. To increase the portability of RecordFlux a C code generator can be added.
The C code generator would consist of two major parts:
[ ] A C equivalent to the ada.py package for generating the message parser and generator code
Additionally the rflx executable needs to be adapted to allow the selection of the desired output language. For that I propose the following parameter:
--target-language=<language>
The default value for the language would be spark. This pattern allows to introduce further languages in the future without needing to add new parameters.
