SVG in Ruby vs. C++

(paraphrasing)

Ruby:


    def resolve_property(p)
      return send(p) if respond_to?(p)
      return parent.resolve_property(p) unless parent.nil?
      return class_for_property(p).new
    end

C++:


    /* 400 lines of resolve_property_ref<SvgProperty>::whatever 
       omitted.  */`
