Herb did the closing keynote at ACCU 2017 on this, the video just had the embargo released. See https://herbsutter.com/2017/07/26/metaclasses-thoughts-o n-generative-c/ This was arguably the most talked about keynote in ACCU history. I had to close the questions after 75 minutes, and even then it went on longer. It has got the C++ hardcore folk more excited about the future of C++ that any other feature from what I can see. If the proposal makes it into C++20, it will be the biggest change since C++11 and be bigger. It may regenerate support for C++ in a way that only modules and concepts can get even close to. On the other hand there is Fortran 08 and 15 which actually make Fortran sort of usable. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
