Hi all, I recently saw the blog post on how the project is going to be re-written in C++. I understand that I am not to decide where the project goes or what happens to it, but if it is not to late, I personally think that we should re-think making the change to C++. I understand the GObject is a pain in the ass to use and learn, and that C++ is a better choice for developing desktop software (not to mention that there more libraries available for C++), but I (personally) think that re-writing the source code is counter-productive. Many people do not want to use C++, as it is very complex and hard to use properly. I know that you said it would be easier for people to learn C++ than GObject, but I disagree. Many people know C and how to use it PROPERLY, whereas only experienced C++ developers can use it properly. I think the only thing changing to C++ would do is scare off contributors. This is just *my *opinion, so just take it with a grain of salt. Please tell me if I have misunderstood something or taken something the wrong way.
Thanks, Leon. _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
