Rust Support for generated Matlab Models

Is it already possible or planned and on the roadmap to have Rust as native output of code generated model from Matlab Simulink?

Anyone here?

Thomas, Rust and it's compiler are not yet qualified for high safety applications, people in Europe are working to get first qualified toolchain out by the end of 2023. Maybe after that Mathworks might create a target langauge compiler for code generation which again needs to be qualified for high safety applications.

It looks like there are certified compiler options at this time.

+1 would love to see Mathworks move in this direction

Same here, @Matt. Would be good to get at least a "we're thinking about it" from @MathWorks Desktop Team.

@Advait Thakre, do you have any good links on the work for a qualified Rust toolchain?

MathWorks has made no public comment on their future plans for Rust.
