See e.g. the compiler, but how does a big source file hurt anyways?
Today, navigation is done by the IDE and cvs times are also gone when
big files were a problem to commit. I consider class reference refering
some external files not better than one big file if this is really
needed. Things being interwinded can also end in the same file.
Ok, that is a good point but then we are talking about a different thing
already. Now the question is whether a huge source file is a bad thing or not.
IMO, the compiler should not force a programmer to make a 34 000 lines source
file (like VirtualTreeView has).
I never looked at VirtualTreeView but I doubt that the 34k line source
is a language problenm.
Programmer should have a choice to split it
Good languages prevent programms to do ugly things :)
if he wants.
Then do the same as in C++ and put it in different include files.
