If you haven't watched it yet, Walter's dconf keynote this year
is a good place to start as are the discussion on dip1000 and
the dip itself.
Thanks, that's a good hint, I'll definitely watch it. :)
But as Rikki said the fact that all arrays carry they length
means that we have array bounds checking, which rules out one
class of very common bugs you would get in C.
Yes, that's what I call "security oriented software technology
concept" or "vulnerability avoiding concept". It's one of the
many things D did right and which I want to mention (there are so
many!), but it's not a concrete impact on software architecture.
That's what I mainly seek. It's not that easy to find concrete
impacts IMO.
I'm about to hand in my Honours thesis on Monday after doing it
for a year, I don't think I could do one in six months, so best
of luck!
If I could, I would also happily wrote a year or more, since
there is so much to write about, but we only have six months for
our master thesis.
