(*) C++ is the odd one out because it doesn't have GC, but then neither does it have an Object superclass so very often MI in C++ does not involve creating diamonds! And especially if the MI style is mixin based.
Even if all your mixins have empty constructors, in C++ there is still a diamond problem if they have any data members, because you end up with multiple copies of them. But C++ has the concept of virtual base classes, which avoids the diamond problem, albeit at the expense of making you explicitly call all the base class constructors in your ancestry. -- Greg -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
