Rewriting the introduction.
[edit]The introduction, though small, could do with a rewrite. It introduces it from a general OO perspective, and then switches to something very C++-oriented, which is kind of off-putting. 146.186.160.217 (talk) 14:13, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
c++ - centered
[edit]Can someone verify that all text in the lead section is general-purpose (i.e., does not contain cp-only or domain-specific otherwise restritions? For example, the sentence "Friend declaration can be placed anywhere in the class declaration" is clearly language-specific: there is no inherent reason to put friend decl into a class decl.
Also, examples from other languages may be good.
Also, list of languages which support this concept will be good, if not all OO languages use this concept. Lorem Ip (talk) 17:42, 12 October 2011 (UTC)
- C++ is a widely known language. People can go to each page to figure out which language has the friend functionality. It may even be called something else which would make this so-called list not relevantBrian3030 (talk) 19:24, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
