Yes, you are right. I think the problem we are trying to integrate C++/C like Lisp,Python,Haskell or programming languages which can rely on a session to share their content. In a way, the idea of Babel originated from such a session oriented languages. C++ is very different. We cannot inject codes through a online session. It's really a non sense. C++ is constructed around the idea of a project (or a Makefile). A typical C++ project holds header files + source files + a main file. As you have pointed out, the current C++ mode, is very specialized for dealing with a main file. It's right name should be something like :mainC++ . So how to deal with a C++ project ? I enjoy programming in Qt and I have been trying to integrate into Babel, a Qmake project. I finally end up by creating three specialized C++ mode: qheader, qsource and qmain. It was frustating because I couldn't reuse the standard C++ mode and in some way the core API in ob-C. It's my personal conclusion that orgmode gives a new light on C++/Qmake project by making it more accessible more easy to grasp.
