It would require changing the rules for lifetimes, with no benefit (and no clear new rule to use anyway). &'foo"delim" is perfectly legal today, and I see no reason to change that.
It's not as big a change as you make it out to be, but fair enough.
Looking at the parser right now, it seems to me that implementing the leading 'R' in C++'s syntax will be just as difficult/easy as doing my delim"stuff"delim proposal so I'm sticking to that idea as my 'vote'.
If C++ way is chosen, I'd suggest the following permutation of the delimeters, as I think it looks lighter (by virtue of using smaller characters):
r'delim"raw string"delim' r'"raw string"' -SL _______________________________________________ Rust-dev mailing list Rust-dev@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/rust-dev
