Who knows about DIP 1014? (struct move hook)
Is it well received? Is it likely to be accepted soon?
I'm working on the std::string binding, it's almost finished...
but
then I hit a brick wall.
GNU's std::string implementation stores an interior pointer! >_<
No other implementation does this. It's a really bad
implementation actually, quite inefficient. It could make
better use of its space for small-strings if it wasn't wasting
8-bytes for an interior pointer to a small string buffer...
Anyway, I'm blocked until this DIP is accepted; so, is it
looking promising?
It's pending a decision from Walter & Andrei, which I hope to
hear soon.
