Bjarne Stroustrup Previews C++0x

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Tuesday January 3, 2006 @12:32AM from the tired-of-the-word-committee dept.

Szplug writes "Bjarne Stroustrup has a sneak peek at the additions to C++ that he expects will be completed (hopefully) by 2009. Included are language-defined threads, optional garbage collection, some automatic type deduction, and template concepts. From the article: 'The list of current proposals is still quite modest and not anywhere as ambitious as I'd like. However, more proposals are being considered and more libraries will appear either as part of the C++0x standard itself or as further committee technical reports.'"

Slashdot interview? by nyri · 2006-01-03 01:03 · Score: 5, Interesting

How about having a slashdot interview about C++0x with Strousrup? I think it would be a good forum to gain more insights about C++ and a fine possibility to allow a community (in this case the slashdot readers) to make and to vote on feature proposals.
