[previous] MISRA-C:2004  Rule  1.3:  (Required) [next] Multiple compilers and/or languages shall only be used if there is a common defined interface standard for object code to which the languages/compilers/assemblers conform.
If a module is to be implemented in a language other than C, or compiled on a different C compiler, then it is essential to ensure that the module will integrate correctly with other modules. Some aspects of the behaviour of the C language are dependent on the compiler, and therefore these must be understood for the compiler being used. Examples of issues that need to be understood are: stack usage, parameter passing and the way in which data values are stored (lengths, alignments, aliasing, overlays etc.)

Example Code: 



#include "misra.h"
#include "m2cmex.h"

extern S16 test_0103( void )
{
   return 0;
}

No QAC messages cover this rule.
