Re: Buffer/String split, take2

Hi all,
  I believe that the D&C design is better than Universal Buffer because
of many reasons. My sense is that the Universal Buffer will be very
complex and will not have the desired results, because the real problems
  exist in other subsystems (eg parsers).

But if choosing the D&C design means that we are going to wait for 2 or
more years to be implemented because of the lack of the development time
  maybe it is better to accept the Universal Buffer design. It will not
solve all the problems but it is not bad, it is an improvement.

But again I like the idea of a well designed Buffers Api, where buffer
classes handle different cases and String be a class (or classes) which
operates on Buffer (sub-)regions.

Regards,
    Christos.
