Here it is below:

18:35 You write semicolon after class definitions in C++ because you write semicolon after struct definitions in C which in turn is because you can have entity declarations between } and ;
Ditto for union and enum.
Other {} bodies (of namespaces, functions, if-else etc. don’t have a similar requirement, so they don’t end with semicolon.

Qt nice stuff…

However, I hope that it won’t end up like the Borland… Yeah, that one. Remember Kilix.. too…

Herb, if everything goes normal with metaclasses, which is more likely: that it gets into the 23 or the 26 standard?

At 32:30 => “I don’t want to do C++/CX any more ; life’s too short !”
I am so happy to hear that. We don’t need those extensions, just do ISO C++. This is the way C++ rocks.
Always the standard !
