While I agree with some of your remarks (particularily, the fact that it becomes too "scripting" language) ... where to go?
I don't like Go (syntax, mainly). The sole contender in the C++-like family, for systems programming, would be Vala, but since they dropped the posix profile... :(

D has set a new standard for me. No CTFE, no thanks.

Just let's try to be less harsher. Even if that's true, being harsh would be of no good for that person and for us neither.

Support for C++ templates was in the last release, and the new pull request is only for special mangling of some stl declarations. |
