[Freeciv-Dev] Re: #define $#@$%! template

[Dan Gohman <gohmandj@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

What would people think about writing freeciv in c++?

Ways in which freeciv would benifit:

- Language support for objects (unit, city, player, etc.)
- STL collections to replace the speclist stuff and the hashing code
- real iterators instead of big cpp macros.

I've done a little bit of hacking on this on my local tree, and I think
this could be a worthwhile thing. IMO the code looks a lot cleaner.

I'm open to discussion.
