Hi Markus, all,

Markus has done a great job of C++ifying a ton of our C-classes, but... there are still a few left. knot.h display/sp-canvas-item.h

Just a note:

- SPKnot from knot.h should eventually be replaced by Inkscape::UI::ControlPoint from ui/tool/control-point.h, which is a lot easier to use.

- I'm not really sure whether having a separate hierarchy of SPCanvasItem is a good idea; perhaps using a modified DrawingItem for controls is better.

Regards, Krzysztof

Waiting for the time after 0.49 sounds sensible. Just look at all the things I broke by mistake when I was "only" converting these things to c++ without changing any of the logic ;) . For more "inspirational videos" look at these two pages: http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/GoingNative-2012 http://channel9.msdn.com/Events/GoingNative/2013

I can especially recommend Scott Meyers' speech "An Effective C++11/14 Sampler", not only for the topic, but for his presentation. Probably the best speaker I've ever listened to :) .

Regards, Markus

Which ever refactoring we do for the 0.50/1.0/5.0 release, I'd like to reserve some review time because the align handles will need certain things. Although I've already touched a lot of this code for various reasons and I would have refactoered it into C++ but I'll wait until I've watched a few more inspirational videos ;-)

For now, we have some interesting bugs.

Martin,
