I agree that article is thin on technical details, but it does provide arguments against the textual-inclusion technique that C++ (and C) currently use. However, that points to a Clang implementation of modules for Objective C. And the proposed solution it points to is eight years old. For more details, see the most recent proposal: http://isocpp.org/files/papers/n4214.pdf http://isocpp.org/files/papers/n4214.pdf It was discussed on HN about a month ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8452886 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=8452886
