C++ Namespaces, comparison to Java packages

Question

I\'ve done a bunch of Java coding recently and have got used to very specific package naming systems, with deep nesting e.g. com.company.project.db. This works fine

Answer 1

You can have nested namespaces in C++.

They don't work the same as in java, though, obviously. Java packages are really much better defined and there is no real static init weirdness. With C++ namespaces are helpful but still have a fair bit of danger involved.
