Give me a break. What's there to keep track of. The operator
is local to the class. Don't tell me you'll confuse what the 
'+' operator is supposed to do with a string class vs float
class to handle higher precision. The context is the class. 
There is no confusion. I still like C but you don't get this
type of associativity. Its modular thinking taken a step further.

Absolutely! I'm questioning how long you've been programming vs how long
you've been trolling. 

void mem_leak(void)
{
    char *leak = 0;
    leak = (char *)calloc(52, 1);
}


Tell me that this "C" code won't leak. 

Maybe its true that with more complexity in features you might need
to pay more attention and program intelligently, but hey, C++ when
programmed correctly doesn't leak.

Where are you getting this information?

Heh. Fallacies. With the code that I can reuse your argument vanishes
with the second implementation. Its hard to seperate the proprietary
code in C a lot of times. 

Besides. A good C++ programmer can lessen that gap, and when you compare
the costs of maintaining this code, far less will be spent maintaining
the C++ code.

How much experience do you have programming in C++? Or is this conjecture?
