Dear C++ Committee: Stuff I've waited for for twenty years, @Jonathan_Blow implemented in a month of part time work. You're all fired.
@Jewelots_ Symmetric compile time execution! It's like the most important feature of any language and C++ still doesn't f'ing have it.

@Jewelots_ The "progressive compilation" to get rid of forward declares was also great, although VisualAge did have that part back in '98. -
@cmuratori oh man no more forward declares? Yessss

@cmuratori Dang! I don't actually know what that is! I'm not too versed in the backend/inner workings of C++. It sounds neat though! -
@Jewelots_ It just means you can execute your code at compile time as well as run time, and use the results to feed into the compilation. - Show replies
