Unless an IDE is part of the standard somehow I strongly disagree that "IDEs make it better" is a good argument for preserving a language feature that is confusing. Not everyone uses an IDE, and for certain low level systems programming kinds of things (you know, the things Rust wants to target) sometimes an IDE isn't available or is cumbersome to use.
That said I am a bit confused at the confusion. Rust is better than C++ in this regard, in my opinion, even if the system is a tad slower to build still.
- Manishearth 10y agoAgreed. This should be fixed in the docs, diagnostics, and maybe by changing the language in a way withoutboats recommends, but we should not rely on folks having an IDE.
