C++ programming style

Question

I\'m an old (but not too old) Java programmer, that decided to learn C++. But I have seen that much of C++ programming style, is... well, just damn ugly!

All that stuff

Answer 1

That's called seperating interface and implementation. That allows clients to figure out how to call your class without having to wade through all the code too. Frankly I think it's practically insane that people could consider it "wrong".

However, you will be quite pleased to find out that many C++ developers agree with you on that score. So go ahead and put your entire implementation in *.h files. There's a school of style out there that agrees with you.
