But that's not what we're talking about. "Port CPython to C++" is a perennial suggestion that gets rejected fairly quickly, as the C++ stdlib equivalent structures and functions in CPython are efficient and well-tested. I don't know much about Rust but I know that some core modules have already been ported to Rust. Since core devs, with a specific reason (security, it's crypto stuff) to move away from C are involved in that effort I would guess that movint to Rust is far more likely than to C++. The point of C++ standard support level is linking CPython to external codebases using C++, and at least for the standard CPython currently supports, the C++ ABI is specific to each compiler and version (for some compilers), right? _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list -- python-dev@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-dev-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-dev.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-dev@python.org/message/EZ7B7SL233QTMN6GEEA4SJDHIBGFIEIC/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
