Hi everyone C++ has some drawbacks; it all depends on what C++ compiler you are using. Some problems with C++ arise in: - exception handling (its horrible) - it hides things like memory allocation and you can write object-oriented code in C
what could be done in C++ is module interfacing, but the base or core of the software should be done in C imo the benefit of C is that you can understand every line of code without knowing the context, it does what it does and nothing else; with vala or other higher level languages, everything becomes context dependent so reading lines of code does not tell you much (after all) cheerio, On Sun, Mar 27, 2011 at 1:42 PM, Francesco Cat <[email protected]> wrote: > Can I just ask something stupid? > Everyone here is speaking about C as an alternative but no one about > C++.
