Worth noting, too, that Swift does this largely because it inherits its default runtime from Objective-C, which started as a manually refcounted language and added automatic refcounting GC-ish behavior later in life. Swift was designed to be a more intuitive replacement for ObjC, so it inherits most of its benefits and curses. - Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
