Unfortunate that this is one part of the C++0x g++ project that has yet to get serious. (At least the last time I checked out the g++ experimental code a few months ago.) C++0x lambdas are the one thing that I've been wanting to try out for years.

Instead, we got a lot of (now somewhat wasted) effort on concepts. I like concepts in principle, but too many C++ people saw concepts as a way to write provable code and unreadable library documentation instead of as a way to simplify compiler error messages.



Prepare to be pleasantly surprised: http://gcc.gnu.org/projects/cxx0x.html
