Towards memory safety with ownership checks for C
Summary: Cake Playground aims to statically check code and prevent bugs, including memory bugs, by using new qualifiers and methods of communication with the compiler. Owner objects manage the lifetime of referenced objects, while view objects reference objects without managing their lifetime. The compiler checks ownership rules using six states: uninitialized, moved, null, not-null, zero, and not-zero. The Cake source is used to validate the concepts, and the language remains unmodified when the c_type_system++ is disabled.
