Abstract
Object-oriented programming languages have always distinguished between "primitive" and "user-defined" data types, and in the case of languages like C++ and Java, the primitives are not even treated as objects, further fragmenting the programming model. The distinction is especially problematic when a particular programming community requires primitive-level support for a new data type, as for complex, intervals, fixed-point numbers, and so on.
