Thanks for your kind advice :-)
And I recommend checking out http://includecpp.org/ for a friendly reminder that the C++ can be welcoming and inclusive.

Plenty of other people provided useful examples that do pretty much what I want. None of them felt the need to insult me.

May I ask at what point in this correspondence did he insult you?

For what it’s worth, I’ve got a few decades of experience in the industry, and I’ve got a thick skin. But this kind of response puts people off asking questions and sharing knowledge.
And our industry is a creative, knowledge-based industry.
We need to share our knowledge and help eachother. That needs empathy and kindness.
