Yes. I did not press the issue because I did not want to sound presumptuous or impertinent. C++ is his language and if he does not want to add something to it, I am not going to whine about it until he does. Or do you think that I am being too cautious?
quote:NullPointer, the C++ language is designed in such a way that the actual problems you're trying to solve have a proper solution within the language. You seem to have three main beefs:
I appreciate your intentions, but I am not interested in arguing whether the language ought to continuing allowing people to write custom memory managers. The argument in this thread is about whether there ought to be a placement delete expression to *match* the *existing* placement new expression. If you would like to discuss whether the implementations for new and delete commonly shipped with most compilers are adequate for solving any and all problems one might reasonbly be expected to encounter, why do you not start another thread?
