From: Daniel Amelang Date: 2005-07-29T00:52:11+09:00 Subject: Re: [SURVEY] Ruby in embedded applications For most RTOS apps, support for native threading is a must, which eliminates ruby right away :( Besides that, one of the points of a RTOS is immediate response (talking microseconds here) to hardware interrupts. I end up having to fine-tune my C/assembly to keep the response snappy. Of course, there are many cases where ruby does make sense an embedded environment, I just haven't come across any of them. I hope to someday :) Dan
