Talk:Struct (C programming language)
Appearance
Article or redirect?
From history, this page has been in three rather different states:
- An independent article (which I just restored)
- A redirect to Record (computer science) (previous state)
- A redirect to Object composition
Each is reasonable (although the last perhaps less so), but there seems to have been no discussion of the matter. Worse, the Structs page had gotten set as redirecting to Object composition, making the singular and plural of "struct" refer to very different things.
The evolution seems to be that what started out as being about C (programming language) specifically got geared towards C++, and then towards abstract object orientation. Later someone reacted to this and changed the redirect to the more common (but still abstract) interpretation of Record (computer science). 90.230.192.94 (talk) 17:17, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
