How i love c++

You can spend the whole life to learn C++. Love it .

Rust and Go: no subclassing, only interface implementations

That's hardly fair, C++'s is the entire method definition, the Java/Python ones are one function in it.

@osmarks That was my reaction. Calling a function in C++ is essentially equivalent to the others. Defining a method is slightly more verbose, but not as dramatic by reliable, fair comparison.

@osmarks no, they are the superclass constructors

I bow to your superior knowledge.

If I'm going to code in a C-like language these days, I'd use D anyway.

Yeah well, but you call the SuperClass constructor with :SuperClass(x), if it had no arguments like the others you don't even need it. Also comparing 1 function call within a constructor with a whole definition of one is really not fair.

@Tungdil if i butcher it down to the absoulte minimum, its still Subclass:Superclass(){} and it doesnt even work. The others are not "just functions" they do the exact same

Welcome to devrant btw, have a ++

@ElectricCoffee im so going to try rust

@RazorSh4rk you're in for a ride. Rust isn't for the faint of heart

@RazorSh4rk
It should be
Subclass ()
: Superclass ()
{
//constructor stuff
}
for C++
and for Java:
Subclass ()
{
super () ;
// constructor stuff
}
For the full constructors.

A constructor is just a function, a special one but just a function so super () is basically a function call. As is Superclass () in C++.
As for the syntax I personally like C++ more, simply because you can see what your base class is in the constructor definition.
