What is B#?
A modern, object-oriented language designed explicitly for small footprint embedded systems.
Highlights
- • Small, simple, and fast.
- • Fully object-oriented with classes, interfaces, and handlers.
- • Unified type system with no pointer manipulation.
- • Uniform syntax for writing portable interrupt handlers and device addressing registers.
- • Lean enough for 8-bit MCUs, expressive enough for 32-bit MCUs, and beyond.
B# also has its own virtual machine.
More highlights
- • Component reuse and deployment across multiple architectures without recompilation.
- • No reliance on third-party compiler and RTOS vendors.
- • Compact and position-independent code generation (no linking).
- • Portable multi-thread kernel.
- • Deterministic memory defragmentation (no garbage collection).
- • Small footprint (<24KBytes Flash and <2KBytes RAM).
B# offers what C can only emulate.
