What can I say... it's almost like coding in C directly, and for C programmers it's great, as well as for Euphoria users who need these wrappers.
There is simply no way to interface with external C libraries without having at least some basic understanding of C.
Euphoria's included memory management features actually make this much easier than other interpreted languages.
But in general, Euphoria 4 is getting more and more stuffy and with too many options, i.e.: not reliable.
I couldn't possibly agree with this statement. The memstruct features alone are a huge advantage. I've never had any reliability issues with any stable release of Euphoria. I've certainly tried out plenty of betas and nightly builds which were unreliable but those issues were promptly fixed.
I don't know why I'm arguing this though. I've been around Euphoria a long time now and it seems that with every generation of the language, there are naysayers who would prefer that the language stagnate and rot rather than improve upon itself over time.
