If you ever write code like template<class T> struct Loop { Loop<T*> operator->(); }; Loop<int> i, j = i->hooray; at work you are shown by the language that you have probably failed to think before you code. A plus in C++, rather than a downsinde. If you begin to realize that you need garbage collection you probably failed while choosing the appropriate language for your project or subproblem. Same thing here: struct a{typedef int foo;};struct a1:a{};struct a2:a{}; #define X(b,a) struct a##1:b##1,b##2{};struct a##2:b##1,b##2{}; X(a,b)X(b,c)X(c,d)X(d,e)X(e,f)X(f,g)X(g,h)X(h,i)X(i,j)X(j,k)X(k,l) X(l,m)X(m,n) n1::foo main(){} Wich sane person would consider writing this a good idea?
