Probably a distant third is improving build tooling. But
those two are
more important that everything else by an order of magnitude.
Well yeah, but that's just the current clear direction. Who
knows what
it will be next week.
It's been this for a good while, and it will probably be until
done. -- Andrei
Here at work I'm toying with C++ compatibility right now: If it's
viable, I would like to use D instead of C++ for a cloud tool
that must link with C++ computer vision libraries...
Right now it sounds promising, so this feature could really be
very interesting, not only to facilitate the integration with
existing in-house codebase, but also for brand new projects.
I'm starting to think that there will be a lot of buzz and fuss
about D as soon as good bindings to popular C++ libs will appear
in the wild...
