Hi,
recently there is much talk about extending C++ interop in D
but it is unclear
to me what that means. Functions and virtual class methods are
already callable.
What else is planned in the near future? Exceptions? Support
for C++ templates?
(that seems difficult no?).
Currently, D supports C++:
* function calling
* name mangling
* namespaces
* templates
* member functions
* single inheritance
* basic types that exist in C++ but not D (like 'long')
I do understand current situation tho I admit I am not aware of
the "single inheritance". Does it mean that one can derive in D
from a C++ class (don't see it in the docs)?
Essentially, we're going to see how far we can push interop.
I suppose that is the answer I was looking for, time will tell
yes? :)
