G'day all. Quoting Jason Dagit <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

OO on its own is also well-understood to be inadequate for programming- in-the-large. 100k lines, by the way, isn't "large". 1M lines is "large". 10M+ lines is "very large". Large or very large programs tend to use one or more varieties of componentisation (e.g. higher-level scripting layer, plugins, COM/CORBA/.NET), which is arguably at a strictly higher level than OO.
