The n2o4 crate provides safe, idiomatic Rust bindings
to the APIs of cFE and OSAL,
the libraries of the Core Flight System (cFS).
This is a work in progress. While enough has been written to allow some classes of cFS application to be written, bindings for many parts of the API don't currently exist.
If you need or want to use some part of the API for which a binding doesn't exist yet, consider helping to flesh out the crate!
Currently, n2o4 only supports the following:
- cFE tag
v7.0.0-rc4 - OSAL tag
v6.0.0-rc4
Extending support to other versions is an open issue (#1).
n2o4 requires Rust 1.64.0 or newer.
See USING.md for how to set everything up to
use n2o4 (and Rust in general) in your cFS application.
Also, take a look at a sample app demonstrating the use of n2o4.

N2O4 is the chemical formula for dinitrogen tetroxide (aka nitrogen tetroxide). As cFS is intended for spacecraft flight software, and the Rust community has a long history of oxidation-related names, it seems appropriate to give this crate the name of a rocket propellant—one that's an oxidizer.
