This is more or less the approach which scripting languages like Python
are taking, which gives a reasonable syntax but overhead, because the
JSON must be parsed at runtime.
 
With C++17, I can imagine there is a solution which avoids the runtime
parsing. Initializer lists, variadic templates, ... ,
 
Would it be possible to do something like this:
 
function(arg1, arg2, {{"option1", arg}, {"option2", arg}})
 
? Bonus points if the "option" strings are evaluated at compile time.

In my case, the applications were related filesystem replication, so
data had to be parsed at run time. JSON was a natural on the wire format.

The main benefit with the blob approach was all of the (what would be)
optional information was in the blob, allowing all of the functions in
the receiver to have the same interface. So the top level dispatcher
(based a command field) was easy to write either as table driven or an
if/else tree.
 
Having the optional information also kept the decision logic local to
the function that processed a particular element. Something like:
 
void newFile( JSON::Object blob )
{
createFile( blob );
 
applyACL( blob );
}
 
void createFile( JSON::Object blob )
{
if( !blob.has( "name" )
throw std::runtime_error("File must have a name!");
 
...
}
 
void applyACL( JSON::Object blob )
{
if( !blob.has( "ACL" )
return;
 
...
}

That's enough satirical posts for now (I think they feed the Hodgin
Troll); they will resume on the Hodgin Troll's next proselytization.

Peter Cheung attacked several groups with his flood of posts
against me, totaling up numbers that were far, far in excess
of anything close to my post count, even well over 200 posts
in a couple weeks.
 
You can do the same with comp.lang.c++. All it proves is you
don't care about the group you claim to care about, that you are
a criminal identity thief, and that you're someone who needs a
mask to post behind (no matter the subject), "Mr. Flibble."

How thick are you? I am not going to do the same which is why I said
they are on hiatus until your next proselytization. If YOU care about
this group then YOU will cease your proselytisms. This group only wants
to read C++ related posts not your fucktarded brain dumps.

I care about people, Leigh. The Lord asks us to go forth an teach
all the world. I will obey Him. His message is given for all who
will be saved. It is not given for those who won't. If the message
is not for you, then please know I am truly harmed by that fact be-
cause I do care about your future, and I want you to be saved.
 
My desire for you is that you will be saved from judgment for your
sin, saved from eternal damnation. I want you to prosper and thrive
in eternity. Only Jesus can make that possible because only Jesus
can take your sin away.

You don't care about people at all; all you care about is satisfying

That is one possible view/take on my actions. It is not the only one,
nor is it the correct one. The correct one is as I've indicated.
 
Open your eyes, Leigh. There's an entire eternity's call before your
very life right now this day. The Lord Himself is inviting you to
come and be a part of His Kingdom. He promises you a future beyond
imagination, not limited as this temporal world is.
 
It is NOT about me!
It is about YOU ... and your relationship to Him.

This thread and this topic is all about you though; all about you and
your unwanted actions toward this group.

I am willing to do a deal, a compromise if you will. If you agree to
restrict your proselytization to the signature block of otherwise
serious C++ related posts then I agree to stop the satirical posts.
 
I am man enough to offer you this deal; are you man enough to accept it?

You can destroy comp.lang.c++ if you choose to do so, Leigh. I will
continue to post periodic messages about people's need to be forgiven
for their sin. If my posts are too much for you to handle, then go
ahead and flood the group with the posts of your choosing.
 
My concern is for your soul first, then other things (including C++)
after.

Did you ever watch Sports Night? I used to love that show back in
the late 90s, and early 00s. Still remember many quotes:
 
Dana Whitaker: [mockingly] I'm looking for ways to kill you,
you know.
 
Sam Donovan: Dana, I have been through alcohol, marriage,
and network television. If you want to kill me,
you're gonna need some kryptonite.
 
-----
Leigh, I've been pursued by many a foot soldier like you, including
the biggest you've seen (Peter Cheung). If you want to silence me it
will have to be by force because so long as I have free will, I will
openly testify unto all about the freedom and redemption made possible
in and by Jesus Christ.
 
"Shall not the Lamb receive the full reward for His suffering?"
 
I can tolerate the hatred and shunning of men, because I know who it
is I teach about. He is worthy of anything I will lose or go through
by my teaching others about Him.

So many people think Christianity is just a religion. And for many
that is truly all it will ever be. But for those who are saved and
born again of the spirit of God ... it is a relationship. You live
anew for God each day.
 
This teaching given by Steve Lawson addresses this point brilliantly.
I listened to it earlier today after posting it:
 
It Will Cost You Everything
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xtk0I0Rp9vs
 
You should listen to it. He speaks very well about what it truly
means to be a Christian. It's not just something you do on Sunday
for a couple hours. He is literally your whole life.

your posts are entertaining but they are becoming repetitive. I count
many more threads opened by you (10:1) than by the originak religious
spammer. Please stop being worse than the original group destructor.

Evolution shows us that Adam never existed; The Bible claims Moses was
related to Adam so Moses never existed either; Jesus implied Moses
existed making Jesus:
 
wrong (he was only human, not a God);
or a liar (he is a deceitful God);
or he also never existed.

Jesus said to his followers,
 
"I created man and woman with original sin."
"Then I destroyed most of them for sinning."
"Then I impregnated a woman with myself as her child so that I could be
born."
"Later, I will kill myself as a sacrifice to myself to save all of you
from the sin I gave you in the first place."
 
Sounds perfectly reasonable to me.

There are several people I converse with, but it's given from the point
of view of teaching when it relates to Christianity and world-held view-
points.
 
You won't be able to find a flaw with the Biblical teachings. They are
from God, and they are comprehensive.
 
The only times flaws are cited is when a person looks superficially,
and does not take the time or effort to gain a true understanding of
why it is the thing they've identified is not actually a flaw.
 
The Bible is given to man by God through His Holy Spirit. It is a
supernatural teaching provided to give us natural guidance (in our
flesh), as well as spiritual guidance for those who are saved and
born again.
 
I teach you these things, but you won't hear them because you're
already convinced that what you believe is right, and that there
must instead be something wrong with me, which is why I won't
listen to you. I've been where you are. I was there for almost
35 years. When I was almost 35 years old I came to faith and now
I know the truth. It is that which I try and teach others, but
until a person is willing to seek the truth, it will never come
to them.
 
As I've stated, this teaching is for those who are being saved.
It is not given for other people.
