There is a runtime library with functions like "new" and "delete", but it's not a layer in the sense of the Euphoria runtime. >I thought maybe RDS was referring to c-compiled eu programs being >faster >than c++ albeit not as fast as straight c I don't think there is much of a speed difference between C and C++, if any (you might lose a few cycles on a method call vs. a plain function call).
