Why I No Longer Like or Use C++
March 12th, 2008
From Pro-Phi-Psi:
I was reading Artima today when I came across this article on C++. The article talks about some new feature of C++ called rvalue references. I tried to read it until my eyes glazed over. I went back to the top to look for the tell tale reason, which exists in almost all publications on C++, for why I didn’t understand the article and why I didn’t care that I did not understand it. Here is the money quote: Rvalue references is a small technical extension to the C++ language….They are primarily meant to aid in the design of higher performance and more robust libraries.
