Don, how feasible do you think Go or Rust are, to start using in place of
C++?
Really? You'd rewrite code in a completely different language because
you can't figure out a way to select std::auto_ptr or std::unique_ptr
depending on your build environment?
I said "start using" (for new development), not "rewrite". The Mozilla
project did something similar, they used Rust to develop their new Servo
layout engine, not rewrite the whole of Firefox in it.
That can be considered on its own merits for any new feature. It is not
a solution to the build problem, because we will still have millions of
lines of C++ that has to be built for each target. If anything, it will
make the build problem worse, by adding another language to the mix.
