- Signals/Slots mode has big overhead and hides too much from developer.
I do not see how it hides anything, it seems to make connections between things very explicit and clear, while being executing quite fast and being very simple to use.
Sean Parent has made the argument that the rampant use of signals and slots creates an ad-hoc graph algorithm that's nearly impossible to reason about (e.g. big-O performance, termination). That's why he came up with Adam (http://stlab.adobe.com/wiki/index.php/Adam_Tutorial). It would be really cool to see if Adam (and Eve: http://stlab.adobe.com/group__asl__tutorials__eve.html) could be used as a programming interface atop Wt. -- Dave Abrahams BoostPro Computing http://www.boostpro.com
