Wow Modern C++ is really different from old C++ The main issue comes up with compiler standards compatibility. In the past with very large C++ projects, we've wanted to move towards newer C++ programming idioms but cross platform compiler compatibility has held us back. More specifically not all of these are on the same page when it comes to standards compatibility to use these features: - GCC - MS VCC - xlC - Clang Standards compatibility is one thing, good performance with standards compatibility is another. So unless you're only targeting a single platform, it'll be a while till everyone has full support for modern C++. In cases like these, Python, Java, Go or any other VM based language just makes sense unless performance is absolutely paramount.
