Even if it doesn't make you a better programmer, "auto" will cut down on RSI ;) I hate typing iterator type names.

- pjmlp 14y agoStill way better than Objective-C method calls though.
- coldtea 14y agoNot really. For one, everybody does it them with XCode and auto-complete. Second, the verboseness there plays a function: it makes them self-documenting, whereas with C++ types/iterators/etc you're just repeating yourself.
- pjmlp 14y agoI used Objective-C in the NeXT days...
- coldtea 14y agoHah. Nice. At least you didn't have to write UI code for it!
- pjmlp 14y agoIt was a bit sad actually. We were porting a particle simulation framework done in Objective-C with Renderman shaders to C++/Windows, because we thought NeXT would die soon. This was way before Apple decided to buy NeXT.
- pmelendez 14y ago>"For one, everybody does it them with XCode and auto-complete." Which is not necessarily a good experience. From all the IDEs I had used in my life, XCode is the only one I really hate.
