Rust binding? #77

Closed ileixe closed 3 months ago

ileixe commented 4 months ago

Hi, we're using systemc a lot and have a large rust codebase. I'd like to ask question about feasibility to make Rust binding for Systemc. Any opinion or prior arts?

Hi,

I think the Accellera's SystemC forum (https://forums.accellera.org/forum/10-systemc-language/) maybe more appropriate for this. SystemC is C++ - and Rust has bindings to C++ (that you are likely already aware of). But beyond that high level response - a lot will depend on exactly what is modeled (at what level of abstraction) in the rust codebase and how it needs to communicate with the SystemC simulation.

Rust binding is not part of the IEEE 1666-2023 revision, and is therefore out of scope at the moment. This might be considered for a later revision.
