Eh? C++11 makes things easier/better IMO, C++14 also has a few good
things in it. Really I'd say the main issue with C++ is how slow they
are at adding some of the really important things(no modules until
C++17(if then) --)
Except:
- You still need to know C and C++98 to deal with old codebases and
compiler errors;
- Not everyone can use C++11 and C++14, either due to company policy or
set of available compilers
- It is 4 years time until 2017, plus the time compilers will need to
adopt it, how relevant in the industry would that standard still be?
personally I don't give a fig about developers with average skill
sets, but even they are better off with newer features like auto,
lambda, shared_ptr/unique_ptr
Good luck working in code bases of big companies.
