Type inference using the 'auto' keyword.
This is the one I'm looking forward to. Maybe I won't have to typedef every stl container I use just to make my code readable.

- rwmj 16y agoBut compared to real type inference? In languages which have been around since the early 80s?? Just being able to infer the type in the right side of an expression is rubbish.
- cageface 16y agoOf course, but I can't use any of those languages to implement commercial audio units so I'm happy to have something in the one language in which I can.
- rwmj 16y agoReally? You've actually (and verifiably) tried this or not?
- cageface 16y agoMaybe you've never written audio unit or vst plugins? This is a domain in which C++ virtual functions are considered too slow, not to mention things like garbage collection. There's a reason everybody writes this stuff in C++ (and often assembly).
