C++26 Introduces Reflection Compared With Other Languages
|
7.2
A technical blog dated 30 January 2026 reports that reflection is being added to C++26 and notes working implementations in Clang and GCC. The article compares C++’s static, compile-time reflection design with Python, Java, C#, and Rust, highlighting differences in memory layout and typing that affect introspection semantics. It uses an object_to_string example to illustrate trade-offs and implications for tooling and typed introspection.
