h4xx3r17167yI'm waiting for a sane source modules system, include/pragma isn't acceptable (imo). I hope in C++20 they figure it out
-
@thepra thank you for being the voice of reason! The committee are a bunch of cowards for not pushing modules with c++17.
It's 2018 ffs. Jesus died for your sins 2018 years ago, even Java has lambdas for two years now, and c++ is still stuck with a 46 year-old(!) header system. Holy crap. -
C++ is beautiful not discusting...
People nowadays use Javascript and need 3000 packages and 5 Chrome instances to run a Hello World app. -
aul122417yI really like it that there is no easy way to add libraries (seriously). As a result a normal c++ project has way less dependencies as for example something using js or go
-
@aul12 That kinda leads to C++ devs reinventing the wheel a little too often. I find thats the biggest weakness of C++. Not saying they should just snap in and frankenstein solution like other languages, but it should be easier to include what you actually need. This is a huge barrier for new C++ devs.

@Hastouki Reinventing the wheel to often what are you talking about?
We use our beautiful Std library and our brain, to write elegant algorithms. -
@oo92 exactly, I've worked with enough FE devs who barely understand the guts that make up their solution.
I fucking love C++.
Bjarne Stroustrup should get a Nobel Prize.
Just saying..
