Team,
C++ has been around since 1986, why templates are still regarded is a
new feature by most compiler vendors and not fully supported (for
example export feature). Look at other popular languages -- say Java,
CSharp --and templates , also known as generics, are fully implemented
and supported in latest releases. Yes, in C++ they are implemented
differently, yet not better. Then why C++ is so lagging behind. Can't
we get ourself together? It took us a decade to come up with the new
standard, yet it's still in the making -- Java 6.0 and .NET 3.0
blossomed in record time.
What's with C++? To me it's the best (and primordial) programming
language that manage to get stuck in 1969, finding it hard to make a
transition from boy to man!
Thanks.
