lol. Listen friend, I've been involved in PHP internals on and off for over 20 years -- and so has Pierre. You'd do well to respond with a little more consideration instead of flying off the handle calling us ignorant rust developers lol.
The idea of enhancing support for C++ makes no sense. It's a waste of time and energy. The entire industry is actively trying to to move AWAY from C/C++ in general, not to mention someone has to maintain it after you get bored insulting people here and move on. This is doubly true when the benefit is a handful of people who want to might write some extension in C++.
