Maybe I suck at C++, but I can't meaningfully reason about template-heavy code. Not about the run-time performance, nor resource consumption. STL and Boost are beyond funny if you ask me. > The formal standard defines what is undefined. Your safety-critical code shouldn't rely on some compiler-specific quirks or some magical code, but rather it should stay within the bounds of well-defined behavior. Agreed. But take a look at the specification and you'll be amazed on just how much stuff is left for the actual implementation to figure out. |

Which is why the coding standard for a critical project will disallow the use of things that can lead to undefined behavior.
