Glad to hear it!
I guess it's just jarring since the rest of Rust is so well crafted it felt really abrupt to run up against the 32 length fixed size limits. It's also somewhat annoying to have to coerce it into a slice via &array[..] instead of &array.
It's workable and when I finally get the library to a stable state I definitely plan to share what went well and where I saw pain points.
- steveklabnik 10y agoYup, totally hear you. It's totally achievable, but not simple; Haskell has this issue too, for example. There's been a few iterations of the design already. The current approach is to cut scope as much as possible to ship the basics sooner.
- RcouF1uZ4gsC 10y agoIt is this lack of non-type template parameters, template templates (ie higher minded types), and variadics that make Rust feel like a step backwards compared to C++. When, Rust gets these, it will remove a a major blocker for me.
