[Elliott Coates] | But because the syntax of Eiffel itself is so radically different from | C, it offers no easy path for C programmers who want to do the object | thing. is the argument here that the syntax of C++ is _not_ radically different from that of C? if that is the argument, you are truly lost, pal. C++ syntax is different from _everything_ known to man, with a teeny-wheeny subset that could pass for C if you aren't looking very carefully. #<Erik 3018701516> -- ln /dev/null /dev/www
