 ===== Newer C++ features and constructs ===== ===== Newer C++ features and constructs =====
-  * Range-based for loops +The following two items remain open at this point, pending further guidance from more experienced JUCE developers. I reviewed all my ''for'' loops, and didn't see a case where using C++11 range-based constructs would yield improvement, and I'm not certain yet how inline member-variable initialization actually applies to my code (unless Jules was referring to the kinds of changes I already made to my GUI classes). 
-  * inline member variable initialization +Comments welcome on the JUCE Forum! 
-  * take advantage of established cast operators (foo("xyz") not foo(String("xyz")))+  * [[Range-based for loops]] 
 +  * [[inline member variable initialization]]
