(Still think it should be part of the language though. C++ proclaims to enable data-hiding, but it really doesn't. The speed/data-hiding trade-off that C++ originally made was fine for the times, but now that trade-off isn't so necessary...)
It really depends on the application domain. I'll bet there are programmers out there writing embedded applications that wouldn't agree with that. C++ is quite a versatile language, but, as with any other tool, it's applicability is still finite. Perhaps what you're really in need of is a higher level language? Scott McCaskill
