I agree. I'm sure many people do in the committee even. Unfortunately C++ can't introduce breaking changes even though now we know better. I wish D or a similar (sane) native language gained some real momentum, since C++ is a "lost cause" in this regard (I can't deny that the new standards make it much nicer, the problem is the baggage that is called backwards compatibility).
- voidlogic 13y agoYou should checkout Go (http://golang.org/ http://golang.org/). It is more popular than D on github and has a lot of momentum.
- voidlogic 13y agoWhy the down votes. The poster asked for "sane" native languages with momentum? I gave him a suggestion that met his needs and made no false claims...
- jmgao 13y agoYou recommended a garbage collected language that doesn't even have generics as a replacement for C++.
- voidlogic 13y agoWhen it really matters- Nothing makes you use the GC... You can use a your own pool (or in tip sync.Pool) or mmap and your own allocator... I used to do a lot of C#/C++/Java and after two years of Go... I don't miss generics. Go has been a great C++ replacement for me...
