There's a still a notion of the compilation unit, which is the cpp file on which you invoke the compiler. Due to templates being prevalent in C++, included files contain the implementation as well; so any changes you make there lead to re-compiling a lot more compilation units than, for example, in C.
- carlmr 3y agoThat is kind of restating my point. There might be these translation units, but they're tightly coupled to all the other translation units, making them not very individual IMO.
