I think we all know the answer here 😂
IMHO you are both right :)
You are speaking about API compatibility, `[]() {}()` speaks
about ABI compatibility. The latter makes sense in long-running
production software. So we know that there are no issues in API
compatibility but we don't know anything about ABI.
no. in C# it breaks ABI. that is why its not acceptable in my
team.
I expect it would also break ABI in D.
so again, getters/setters will almost certainly have value, even
if you initially see no value in the few extra keystrokes needed
to implement them.
the alternative case being presented is to just make class member
variables public so clients can set/get them directly ....
well... good luck with that.
that's the end of my input on this thread.
