Should we need smart pointers?

[stone tusk]

How about impl the smart pointers like c++ in a lib,does it make easy to manage memory?

[low adder]

it would need to be a language feature instead of part of the std since they rely on destructors. the general

var foo = bar.init(alloc);
defer foo.deinit()

is somewhat similar in a way

but i think automatic memory management like that wouldnt really fit with how zig does stuff

[worthy field]

I don't think it fits zig
