Now, the UDK has to have C++ bindings for convenience of C++ developers. It might be worth considering making these bindings available for multiple versions of the Linux C++ ABI simultaneously on the same machine (via different shared library major version numbers, perhaps). This would be possible if (and perhaps only if) the guts were in C, so the C++ binding really was just a shallow adaptor.
I just noticed somebody else making a similar argument: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/foren/go.shtml?read=1&msg_id=8172098&forum_id=80089 That writer mentions that providing the C interface first is the way to go; other languages' interfaces are much easier to base on a C interface than on a C++ interface. This is certainly something I've heard in other contexts, too. - Dan -- Trying to get a job as a c++ developer?
