Approximately 6 months ago I posted to Reddit. Under the title:

Decades have passed, standard C++ has no agreed and standard error handling concept.

That got attention and some important folks from the C+++ universe also chimmed in. More or less all approving.

I obviously had to show some code. No pressure there. Continue reading “C++ DBJ Error Concept, at last”

Also, C++ is  compiled language, vs dynamic (interpreted) JavaScript. metaclass is already implmented in C#. And conceptualy, as far as types are concerned, C# is somewhere in between, (but not in the middle !) even in it’s latest reincarnation.

Still I think metacall must be implemented in C++ too. Let’s jump into the deep.
