..and it got me thinking, couldn't we just get rid of dynamic
polymorphism and classes altogether?
Compiler can do a lot of optimizations with knowledge about classes.
Also it automates a lot things that would become boilerplate with
proposed manual setup of delegates for each object.
struct Shape // Represents an interface
{
std::function<void (int x, int y)> resize;
std::function<void (int x, int y)> moveTo;
std::function<bool (int r, int g, int b)> draw;
};
Dinamic polimorphism isn't gone anywhere, it was just shifted to delegates.
This approach complicates thing to much and produces template bloat
with no real benefit.
