Plans for official NXP Rust support?

NXP peeps,

Do you have any plans to provide first-party support for Rust on your microcontrollers or microprocessors?  As I saw in this post, there are a number of third-party packages to provide support on specific architectures such as i.MX RT.  I've greatly appreciated NXP's commitment to a quality Eclipse-based toolchain and SDK system for C and (especially) C++ development; I think it would be fantastic if NXP began providing first-party Rust support in the form of libraries to support your devices and middleware.  Any chance this might happen in the near-to-medium future?  Thanks.

David R.

Hi drodgers 

It's always not proper to talk company plans or roadmap on public community. 

But so far we don't have Rust language support.

The register access code for the rust programming language is generated using a provided svd file.

If specific svd file you needed, we can help you check it.

Best Regards

Jun Zhang

I am just starting with a LPC804 project porting from another chip Family.  I would love to port it to Rust and test on the LPC804.  Does anybody know of getting started instructions for how to do this and setup the rust tooling for this chip.    I already have rust working on another vendors chips but the LPC804 is the chip I want to use for the RainAmp.com Soil Moisture sensors.
