alt Hacker NewsI'm not sure C++26 reflection is sufficiently well-baked to actually allow it to be used for serialization boilerplate in codebases. What matters is not what the standard says, but what the compilers implement, and the compiler implementers I know have been kvetching about how problematic reflection is, to the point that it may never be turned on by default.

Out of curiosity, would you be able to elaborate on (or link to?) what makes reflection so problematic?
