They were wrong to do so, most especially for templates, which are hugely useful in embedded programming.
What do you expect of library vendors that want to sell their implementation? There were fears that certain C++ features would make it less useful for embedded developers (be it memory bloat or what else) so they came up with EC++, which helped them sell to the embedded world. It was always funny to see pjp and the dinkum folks defending EC++ on comp.languages.c++ :) Philipp
