Dependency-Guided Repository-Level C-to-Rust Translation with Reinforcement Alignment

arXiv·medium signal

Automates C-to-Rust migration at the full repository level using dependency-guided translation with reinforcement alignment. Traditional rule-based methods produce rigid, unidiomatic Rust, while vanilla LLM approaches fail at repository scale. This method analyzes inter-file dependencies to order translations and uses RL alignment to produce idiomatic Rust — critical for the growing wave of memory-safety migrations in production codebases.
