You can't be serious ! *Every* language has problems. There is no panacea.
I happen to think that C++ has a large number of positive things going for it and it's much further along the track of stabilization than any other language with it's capabilities. So, even though C++ has "niggling yucky details" it is the Right(tm) choice for many applications; and for a large subset, the only suitable language. Only WUSSes are scared by "niggling yucky details" ... :-)) Noel Yap wrote: >--- "Greg A.
