Your first sentence comes across as incredibly combative, and not everyone agrees. Personally, that's why I downvoted it. It would be a much better comment if it was the same thing without it.
For example, one advantage of this strategy as opposed to an incremental Rust re-write is that you would retain a single toolchain, whereas that would require having two.
- jujube3 2y agoIs it actually a single toolchain? I was not clear on that from reading the article. Anyway, all I can say is that having used both C++ and Rust for many years, I have zero desire to use another C++ toolchain.
- steveklabnik 2y agoYes, it's an extension to C++, so as it is implemented now in Circle, and as it would be if it were to be standardized, it would be part of the regular toolchain.
