just curious folks to what folk use to help develope their software with.
I am an avid user of lint and having a go at trying to design what i am gonna do before i start being a code monkey but would like to find out what others are using.
Recently downloaded Tessy but as i get the feeling trying to apply it to an exsisting project will be a huge project its self and as the vendors havent been rushing to reveal the price cost may be an issue.
Does anybody have any recomendations on tools they find useful?
I have sent code, and lots lots lots of documentation for certification. There can be huge amounts of requirements for the certification process when human safety is involved.
But no, I do not thing the general public should have access to all that information. That would stop private companies from being interested in creating such products. And we already know that the government are not so good at being the creators/owners of high-tech products. Why create something new, if something 30 years old will (just barely) manage? Why invest money? First it's a cost to develop. Then it's a cost when people wants to get their old gear replaced with newer, smaller, gear.
A company will only be interested in developing equipment if they know they can reap the profit of their investments. And that requires that their information sent in for certification is handled in a safe way.
And as already mentioned - source code is only meaningful to look at if you have access to the full hw specification. For a heart starter, you need to know everything to even be able to compute charge levels, battery consumption, ...
