I only wanted to point out that Darwin modules are not the only port candidates that want to use C++. While existing code will not be revamped to C++, we must weight exactly what we find acceptable for use in the kernel, and I'm glad the people doing the port brought this up before expecting to commit undesired features. > >http://www.bug-br.org.br/openbfs/index.phtml?section=development > ... > >- Nicer code > >- Easier to maintain > > These are both very subjective.

I admitedly prefer C over C++, and I'm glad to have kobj() but it remains to be seen if it can really replace C++ for all our needs. C++ is the de-facto standard for OO: a lot of people know how to use it and since it was always meant to be an extension to C, C programs are expected to build just the same (I know ... C99 broke some of this). cheers, Pedro.
