Without the need for those higher order abstractions, C is just
fine - no need for C++
Actually, many programmers switched to C++ in the 90s just to get
function overloads and inlining without macros.
If you think C is just fine then I'm not sure why you are
interested in D.
The benefits of C, come from C - and only C (and some good
compiler writers)
Not sure what you mean by that.
There is little overhead by using C++ over C if you set your
project up for that. The only benefits with C these days is
portability.
(depends on what 'many' means) - There certinaly are
'numerous' (what ever that means) projects trying to create a
better c - which contradicts your assertion.
Which ones are you thinking of?
