I keep getting bug reports from users who want to compile code as Objective-C++ in order to use the Apple OS X headers... unfortunately this adds some more relatively common names that we can't use (http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/cocoa/co nceptual/ObjectiveC/Articles/ocCPlusPlus.html#//apple_ref/doc/ uid/TP30001163-CH10-TPXREF167):
id, Class, SEL, IMP, and BOOL
Are these new names or is this just a new request? I'm thinking it would be nice if we could push the source of those names to avoid injecting such common names into the global namespace. If it's simply part of the Objective-C++ language, then I guess we're stuck.
I assume it's part of the Objective-C++ extensions, but I know nothing about it - other than I keep getting bug reports about this :-( John.
