Hi Janne,
[std::string]
As we're supposed to be C++ nowadays, why aren't we
using that?
My reason is simple: I know C and Fortran. I hardly know C++,
and I don't want to learn it for the sake of some largely
irrelevant micro-optimizations.
We should restrict C++ usage to those cases where there is
a clear and large benefit.
Regards
Thomas
