Hi,
Does rule #8.9 apply to objects/functions declared in 3rd party library code?

Thanks

Yes, Rule 8.9 does apply to 3rd party libraries (see Rule 3.6).

If you don't have the source code for the library then you can:

write a stub that provides appropriate definitions in order to allow you to analyse your code; and
ask the library's developer(s) to provide a statement regarding its MISRA C compliance.
