This is not what I wanted to say nor what I'm thinking. Let's say I'm building a system that has to certified against DO 178-B and I want to use gcc. I have to provide some piece of evidences that gcc works correctly, isn't it ?


No, that's wrong, the certification is at the level of the object
program, not the source program.

And those peace of evidences are the same for anybody in the same situation, am I wrong ?


yes you are wrong

So the procedures should be the same ?


I would recommend involving people who know how Do178B certification
works, otherwise you are likely to go in the wrong direction (as seems
to be happening here).

Ok,
I think I better understand things now, I'm sorry I make you to lost you time with my stupid questions.
