[Nobleo ; RTD-Driver] Impact on changing to C17 C standard

Hello Team,

I received the following question : 

Good day, we are developing software based on the reference design RD-BESS1500BUN from NXP. The reference project provided by NXP was set to use the C99 language standard (which is quite old). We would like to update this to the C11 or C17 standard if possible to make use of newer language features. Safety certification and toolchain validation is critical for this project however.

Is there any specific reason why C99 was chosen for the original reference project? Is the provided compiler toolchain and RTD drivers validated/certified to be used with a more recent C standard such as C11 or C17?

Can you support me on this?

Thx,

Frank

=> No, there isn't.
