C++ is still painfully slow to compile, and seems to get slower every year.
- pjmlp 7y agoWhile it still is definitely worse than other compiled languages, using pre-compiled headers, with incremental compilation, incremental linking does help a lot. And making use of binary libraries as well. Eventually with C++20 modules the situation will improve, and maybe by 2025, those that still care might finally enjoy Delphi compile times with C++.
