I don't see any relationship to COM here. Java has managed objects, C++
has, .NET has, so why not OPL too?
Java and C# don't count, as safe languages, they have _ONLY_ managed types.
Their choices will be hard to backport.
Right. The idea sounds to me like the other half-baked attempts to
introduce anonymous methods, class helpers etc. into Pascal.
As far as the C++ bit goes, that is all fairly new. Which part of the
standard (and which standard) do you mean exactly, and which implementation?
All local C++ objects are destroyed when they go out of scope.
The management overhead is as low as for managed strings.
Where did you get that information? It is easy to see that it is somewhat
doubtful as string has copy-on-write properties in addition to ref-counting.
That's something different. While it's possible to copy strings
automatically, the same is impossible with more complex objects. At
least a copy-constructor were required for that purpose. Or more than
one, depending on the kind of the copy (deep/shallow...).
